EFFICIENCYThe ratio of output-signal power compared to the total input power, generally expressed as a percentage [1] [7]. | ||
ELASTICITYThe ability of a substance to return to its original state [10]. | ||
ELECTRIC (E) FIELDThe field of force that is produced as a result of a voltage charge on a conductor or antenna [10] [11]. | ||
ELECTRIC CURRENTThe flow of electrons [1]. | ||
ELECTRICAL CHARGESymbol Q, q. Electric energy stored on or in an object. The negative charge is caused by an excess of electrons; the positive charge is caused by a deficiency of electrons [1]. | ||
ELECTRICAL CHEMICALThe action of converting chemical energy into electrical energy [1]. | ||
ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEMProvides the necessary input power [18]. | ||
ELECTRICAL SYMBOLSGraphic symbols used to illustrate the various electrical or electronic components of a circuit [4]. | ||
ELECTRICAL ZEROA standard synchro position, with a definite set of stator voltages, that is used as the reference point for alignment of all synchro units [15]. | ||
ELECTRICAL-LOCKA synchro zeroing method. This method is used only when the rotors of the synchros to be zeroed are free to turn and their leads are accessible [15]. | ||
