The antenna feed system or antenna feed is the cable or conductor, and other associated equipment, which connects the transmitter or receiver with the antenna and makes the two devices compatible. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In a radio transmitter, the transmitter generates an alternating current of radio frequency , and the feed system feeds the current to ...
A feeder line is a peripheral route or branch in a network, which connects smaller or more remote nodes with a route or branch carrying heavier traffic. The term is applicable to any system based on a hierarchical network. In telecommunications, a feeder line branches from a main line or trunk line.
An automotive wiring diagram, showing useful information such as crimp connection locations and wire colors. These details may not be so easily found on a more schematic drawing. A wiring diagram is a simplified conventional pictorial representation of an electrical circuit. It shows the components of the circuit as simplified shapes, and the ...
DIN 72552 is a DIN standard for labeling the electric terminals in automotive wiring. The most frequently used labels are listed in the table below. The most frequently used labels are listed in the table below.
Diagram of leaky feeder cable. A leaky feeder is a communications system used in underground mines and inside tunnels. [1] Manufacturers and cabling professionals use the term "radiating cable" [2] [3] [better source needed] [4] as this implies that the cable is designed to radiate: something that a typical coaxial cable is generally not intended to do.
PCB mount connectors soldered to a printed circuit board, providing a point for cable or wire attachment. [6]: 56 (e.g. pin headers, screw terminals, board-to-board connectors) Splice or butt connectors (primarily insulation displacement connectors) that permanently join two lengths of wire or cable
Revised standards for wire materials and wiring devices (such as the CO/ALR "copper-aluminium-revised" designation) were developed to reduce these problems. While larger sizes are still used to feed power to electrical panels and large devices, aluminium wiring for residential use has acquired a poor reputation and has fallen out of favour.
The temperature rating of a wire or cable is generally the maximum safe ambient temperature that the wire can carry full-load power without the cable insulation melting, oxidizing, or self-igniting. A full-load wire does heat up slightly due to the metallic resistance of the wire, but this wire heating is factored into the cable's temperature ...
