  2. Ring circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_circuit

    In electricity supply design, a ring circuit is an electrical wiring technique in which sockets and the distribution point are connected in a ring. It is contrasted with the usual radial circuit, in which sockets and the distribution point are connected in a line with the distribution point at one end. Ring circuits are also known as ring final ...

  3. Ring main unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_main_unit

    v. t. e. In an electrical power distribution system, a ring main unit (RMU) is a factory assembled, metal enclosed set of switchgear used at the load connection points of a ring-type distribution network. It includes in one unit two switches that can connect the load to either or both main conductors, and a fusible switch or circuit breaker and ...

  4. Electrical wiring in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_wiring_in_the...

    Electrical installations. Electrical wiring in the United Kingdom is commonly understood to be an electrical installation for operation by end users within domestic, commercial, industrial, and other buildings, and also in special installations and locations, such as marinas or caravan parks. [1] It does not normally cover the transmission or ...

  5. Single-line diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-line_diagram

    In power engineering, a single-line diagram (SLD), also sometimes called one-line diagram, is a simplest symbolic representation of an electric power system. [1][2] A single line in the diagram typically corresponds to more than one physical conductor: in a direct current system the line includes the supply and return paths, in a three-phase ...

  6. Ring (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_(mathematics)

    The set of units of a ring is a group under ring multiplication; this group is denoted by R × or R* or U(R). For example, if R is the ring of all square matrices of size n over a field, then R × consists of the set of all invertible matrices of size n , and is called the general linear group .

  7. Ring oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_oscillator

    The ring oscillator is a member of the class of time-delay oscillators. A time-delay oscillator consists of an inverting amplifier with a delay element between the amplifier output and its input. The amplifier must have a gain greater than 1 at the intended oscillation frequency. Consider the initial case where the amplifier input and output ...

  8. Shaded-pole motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaded-pole_motor

    Shading coils (copper bars) within the magnetic circuit of the field coil. The shaded-pole motor is the original type of AC single-phase electric motor, dating back to at least as early as 1890. [1] A shaded-pole motor is a motor, in which the auxiliary winding is composed of a copper ring or bar surrounding a portion of each pole to produce a ...

  9. Distribution board - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_board

    v. t. e. A distribution board (also known as panelboard, circuit breaker panel, breaker panel, electric panel, fuse box or DB box) is a component of an electricity supply system that divides an electrical power feed into subsidiary circuits while providing a protective fuse or circuit breaker for each circuit in a common enclosure.
