ELECTRODEThe terminal at which electricity passes from one medium into another, such as in an electrical cell where the current leaves or returns to the electrolyte [1]. |
ELECTRODYNAMIC METER MOVEMENTA meter movement using fixed field coils and a moving coil; usually used in ammeters and wattmeters [3]. |
ELECTRODYNAMOMETERA meter using an electrodynamic movement to measure an electric current [16]. |
ELECTROLYSISThe process of changing the chemical composition of a material by passing an electric current through it [4] [11]. |
ELECTROLYTEA solution of a substance that is capable of conducting electricity. An electrolyte may be in the form of either a liquid or a paste [1]. |
ELECTROMAGNETAn electrically excited magnet capable of exerting mechanical force or of performing mechanical work [1]. |
ELECTROMAGNETICThe term describing the relationship between electricity and magnetism. A quality that combines both magnetic and electric properties [1]. |
ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDThe combination of an electric (E) field and a magnetic (H) field [10]. |
ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTIONThe production of a voltage in a coil because of a change in the number of magnetic lines of force (flux linkages) passing through the coil [1] [2]. |
ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCEMan-made or natural interference that degrades the quality of reception of radio waves [10] [17]. |
