  2. IDC (electrical connector) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDC_(electrical_connector)

    Pin 1 is typically indicated on the body of the connector by a red or raised "V" mark. The corresponding wire in a ribbon cable is usually indicated by red coloration, a raised molded ridge, or markings printed onto the cable insulation. On the connector pin 2 is opposite pin 1, pin 3 is next to pin 1 along the length of the connector, and so on.

  3. Home wiring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_wiring

    Power and telecommunication services generally require entry points into the home and a location for connection equipment. For electric power supply, a cable is run either overhead or underground into a distribution board in the home. A distribution board, or circuit breaker panel, is typically a metal box mounted on a wall of the home.

  4. Electrical connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_connector

    The movable (less fixed) connector is classified as a plug (denoted P), [37] designed to attach to a wire, cable or removable electrical assembly. [38] This convention is currently defined in ASME Y14.44-2008, which supersedes IEEE 200-1975 , which in turn derives from the long-withdrawn MIL-STD-16 (from the 1950s), highlighting the heritage of ...

    The first rubber-insulated cables for US building wiring were introduced in 1922 with US patent 1458803, Burley, Harry & Rooney, Henry, "Insulated electric wire", issued 1923-06-12, assigned to Boston Insulated Wire and Cable . These were two or more solid copper electrical wires with rubber insulation, plus woven cotton cloth over each ...

  6. Plugboard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plugboard

    The action caused by an impulse on a wire depended on when in the cycle it occurred, a simple form of time-division multiplexing. Thus an impulse that occurred during 7-time on a wire connected to the column 26 punch magnet would punch a hole in row 7 of column 26. An impulse on the same wire that occurred at 4-time would punch a 4 in column 26.

  7. Distribution board - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_board

    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.

  8. Electrical busbar system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_busbar_system

    Enclosure comparison with normal wiring & with busbar system. Electrical busbar systems [1] (sometimes simply referred to as busbar systems) are a modular approach to electrical wiring, where instead of a standard cable wiring to every single electrical device, the electrical devices are mounted onto an adapter which is directly fitted to a current carrying busbar.

  9. Modular connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_connector

    An 8P8C modular plug. This is the common crimp-type plug, of the same kind pictured above crimped onto a cable (with molded sleeve). A modular connector is a type of electrical connector for cords and cables of electronic devices and appliances, such as in computer networking, telecommunication equipment, and audio headsets.
