  2. Grounding kit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grounding_kit

    Grounding kits for different diameters Part of a tin-plated ripple. Grounding kits / Earthing kits are composed of two main components, a clamp and a cable. The clamp will be screwed on a coaxial cable and in case of lightning strokes in the antenna installation, the voltage will be diverted over a ripple in the clamp with the combined cable and will be earthed / grounded by this way.

  3. Shaft voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaft_voltage

    Currents due to shaft voltage causes deterioration of motor bearings, but can be prevented with a grounding brush on the shaft, grounding of the motor frame, insulation of the bearing supports, or shielding. Shaft voltage can be induced by non-symmetrical magnetic fields of the motor (or generator) itself.

  4. Three-prong adaptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-prong_adaptor

    The ground tab is designed to be attached to the outlet faceplate screw, which is supposed to be connected to the building electrical ground. A cheater plug, AC ground lifter or three-prong/two-prong adapter is an adapter that allows a NEMA 5-15P grounding-type plug (three prongs) to connect to a NEMA 1-15R non-grounding receptacle (two slots).

  5. Ground (electricity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_(electricity)

    A ground fault protection relay must trip the breaker to protect the circuit before overheating of the resistor occurs. High-resistance grounding (HRG) systems use an NGR to limit the fault current to 25 A or less. They have a continuous rating, and are designed to operate with a single-ground fault.

  6. Optical ground wire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_ground_wire

    An optical ground wire (also known as an OPGW or, in the IEEE standard, an optical fiber composite overhead ground wire) is a type of cable that is used in overhead power lines. Such cable combines the functions of grounding and communications .

    Portable Very High Frequency (VHF) radio, forward area, 3-5 Mile Range, replaced by Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio System family of radios: Electrospace Corp. AN/PRC-90: Survival radio operating on 243 and 282.8 MHz AM, with beacon mode, and a tone generator to allow the sending of Morse Code. Replaced by AN/PRC-149: AN/PRC-103

  8. Generator interlock kit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generator_Interlock_Kit

    Early generator interlock kits consisted of two sliding steel or plastic (depending on the brand) plates held together by three bolts and installed on the front cover of the home's breaker panel, however, some models made by Eaton (formerly Cutler-Hammer) and Siemens for panels manufactured by them install on the adjacent circuit breakers themselves and consist of a sliding arm for breakers ...

  9. Powerlock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powerlock

    Single-pole power connectors are employed for making electrical power connections where multi-pole connectors and cables would be impractical to handle due to size, weight and cable bend radius. They are typically used for connecting to large generators and fixed power sources in venues where high-powered temporary equipment may be regularly used.
