  2. Window screen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Window_screen

    A window screen (also known as insect screen, bug screen, fly screen, flywire, wire mesh, or window net) is designed to cover the opening of a window. It is usually a mesh made of metal, fibreglass , plastic wire, or other pieces of plastic and stretched in a frame of wood or metal.

  3. Electromagnetic shielding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_shielding

    The door of a microwave oven has a screen built into the window. From the perspective of microwaves (with wavelengths of 12 cm) this screen finishes a Faraday cage formed by the oven's metal housing. Visible light, with wavelengths ranging between 400 nm and 700 nm, passes easily through the screen holes.

  4. Current sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_sensing

    Fluxgate sensors or saturable inductor current sensors work on the same measurement principle as Hall-effect-based current sensors: the magnetic field created by the primary current to be measured is detected by a specific sensing element. The design of the saturable inductor current sensor is similar to that of a closed-loop Hall-effect ...

  5. Faraday cage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_cage

    A microwave oven uses a partial Faraday shield (on five of its interior six sides) and a partial Faraday cage, consisting of a wire mesh, on the sixth side (the transparent window), to contain the electromagnetic energy within the oven and to protect the user from exposure to microwave radiation. [8]

  6. Fiber-optic current sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-optic_current_sensor

    A fiber-optic current sensor (FOCS) is a device designed to measure direct current. Utilizing a single-ended optical fiber wrapped around the current conductor, [1] FOCS exploits the magneto-optic effect (Faraday effect). [2] The FOCS can measure uni- or bi-directional DC currents up to 600 kA, with an accuracy within ±0.1% of the measured value.

  7. Storm door - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storm_door

    Rollscreen. This is a relatively new hybrid of the full view and ventilating storm doors. The screen is connected at the top of the storm door's window, and when not in use it automatically rolls up on a tensioned dowel in the top of the door. This gives a full-view door when the screen is not in use, and a ventilating door when it is.

  8. Hall effect sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall_effect_sensor

    Hall effect current sensor with internal integrated circuit amplifier. 8 mm opening. Zero current output voltage is midway between the supply voltages that maintain a 4 to 8-volt differential. The non-zero current response is proportional to the voltage supplied and is linear to 60 amperes for this particular (25 A) device.

  9. Motion detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_detector

    A motion detector attached to an outdoor, automatic light. A motion detector is an electrical device that utilizes a sensor to detect nearby motion (motion detection).Such a device is often integrated as a component of a system that automatically performs a task or alerts a user of motion in an area.
