    Bushing (bearing), a type of plain bearing; Bushing (electrical), an insulated device that allows a conductor to pass through a grounded conducting barrier; Bushing (isolator), a mechanical device used to reduce vibrational energy transfer between two parts; Drill bushing, a tool used to guide the placement of a hole when drilling in a workpiece

  3. Bushing (electrical) - Wikipedia

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

    In electric power, a bushing is a hollow electrical insulator that allows an electrical conductor to pass safely through a conducting barrier such as the case of a transformer or circuit breaker without making electrical contact with it. Bushings are typically made from porcelain, though other insulating materials are also used.

  4. Bushing (isolator) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bushing_(isolator)

    A bushing or rubber bushing is a type of vibration isolator. It provides an interface between two parts, damping the energy transmitted through the bushing.

  5. Bearing (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearing_(mechanical)

    A ball bearing. A bearing is a machine element that constrains relative motion to only the desired motion and reduces friction between moving parts.The design of the bearing may, for example, provide for free linear movement of the moving part or for free rotation around a fixed axis; or, it may prevent a motion by controlling the vectors of normal forces that bear on the moving parts.

    A double-tapped bushing, commonly shortened to bushing, is a fitting which serves as a reducer. It is a sleeve similar to a close nipple, but is threaded on both its inner and outer circumferences. Like a reducer, a double-tapped bushing has two threads of different sizes.

  7. Plain bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plain_bearing

    A bushing, also known as a bush, is an independent plain bearing that is inserted into a housing to provide a bearing surface for rotary applications; this is the most common form of a plain bearing. [8] Common designs include solid (sleeve and flanged), split, and clenched bushings. A sleeve, split, or clenched bushing is only a "sleeve" of ...

    became crucial. This type of performance evaluation required the definition of both particular standards and broader objectives in the pursuit of educational goals. Second, these standards and assessment-based reforms also included the involvement and feedback of various stakeholders in both the public and the private sector.
