  2. Resolver (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resolver_(electrical)

    Some types of resolvers include both types, with the 2-pole windings used for absolute position and the multipole windings for accurate position. Two-pole resolvers can usually reach angular accuracy up to about ±5 ′, whereas a multipole resolver can provide better accuracy, up to 10″ for 16-pole resolvers, to even 1″ for 128-pole resolvers.

  3. Bipolar electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bipolar_electric_motor

    These early machines used crudely designed field pole pieces with long magnetic circuits, wide pole gaps and narrow pole pieces that gave only a limited flux through the armature. These fields were usually horseshoe-shaped, with either permanent horseshoe magnets or else either one or two field coils at some distance from the poles.

  4. Field coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_coil

    By increasing the number of pole faces surrounding the Gramme ring, the ring can be made to cut across more magnetic lines of force in one revolution than a basic two-pole generator. Consequently, a four-pole generator could output twice the voltage of a two-pole generator, a six-pole generator could output three times the voltage of a two-pole ...

  5. Multiway switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiway_switching

    In contrast to a simple light switch, which is a single pole, single throw (SPST) switch, multiway switching uses switches with one or more additional contacts and two or more wires are run between the switches. When the load is controlled from only two points, single pole, double throw (SPDT) switches are used.

  6. Dahlander pole changing motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dahlander_pole_changing_motor

    A Dahlander motor (also known as a pole changing motor, dual- or two speed-motor) is a type of multispeed three-phase induction motor, in which the speed of the motor is varied by altering the number of poles; this is achieved by altering the wiring connections inside the motor.

  7. AC power plugs and sockets - Wikipedia

    The connector has three rectangular pins in a row, with the grounding pin longer than other two. The corresponding socket is recessed to prevent shocks. The Norwegian standard is NEK 502:2005 – standard sheet X (socket) and sheet XI (plug). They are also known as the two pole and earth variants of CEE 7/10 (socket) and CEE 7/11 (plug).

  8. Homopolar motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homopolar_motor

    Electromagnetic rotation experiment of Faraday, ca. 1821 [2] Working principle of a homopolar motor: due to movement of negative charges from center towards rim of the disk, a Lorentz force F L is created which brings the entire disk into rotation. The homopolar motor was the first electrical motor to be built.

  9. AC power plugs and sockets: British and related types

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_power_plugs_and_sockets:...

    BS 546, Two-pole and earthing-pin plugs, socket-outlets and socket-outlet adaptors for AC (50–60 Hz) circuits up to 250 V is an older British Standard for three-pin AC power plugs and sockets: four sizes with current capacities from 2 A to 30 A. Originally published in April 1934, it was updated by a 1950 edition which is still current, [1 ...
