  2. Insulator (electricity) - Wikipedia

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

    The ridges are used to add surface area, which improves the electrical resistance of the insulator. Three-core copper wire power cable, each core with an individual colour-coded insulating sheath, all contained within an outer protective sheath. An electrical insulator is a material in which electric current does not flow freely. The atoms of ...

  3. Mineral-insulated copper-clad cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral-insulated_copper...

    Mineral-insulated copper-clad cable is a variety of electrical cable made from copper conductors inside a copper sheath, insulated by inorganic magnesium oxide powder. The name is often abbreviated to MICC or MI cable, and colloquially known as pyro (because the original manufacturer and vendor for this product in the UK was a company called ...

  4. Electric heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_heating

    An electric heater is an electrical device that converts an electric current into heat. [1] The heating element inside every electric heater is an electrical resistor , and works on the principle of Joule heating : an electric current passing through a resistor will convert that electrical energy into heat energy.

  5. Electrical conductor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_conductor

    In physics and electrical engineering, a conductor is an object or type of material that allows the flow of charge (electric current) in one or more directions. Materials made of metal are common electrical conductors. The flow of negatively charged electrons generates electric current, positively charged holes, and positive or negative ions in ...

  6. Overhead power line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overhead_power_line

    Bundled conductors reduce the voltage gradient in the vicinity of the line. This reduces the possibility of corona discharge. At extra high voltage, the electric field gradient at the surface of a single conductor is high enough to ionize air, which wastes power, generates unwanted audible noise and interferes with communication systems. The ...

  7. Bushing (electrical) - Wikipedia

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

    This is specially true of bushings around high-voltage conductors. The electrical analysis usually focusses on the creation of the electric field around the conductor and how the shape of the bushing effects that field. The structural analysis considers the loads (wind, snow, earthquakes, rain, etc.) that the bushing is expected to survive.
