  2. Arc-fault circuit interrupter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc-fault_circuit_interrupter

    The current (as of 2013) devices are referred to as "combination type." An arc-fault circuit interrupter ( AFCI) or arc-fault detection device ( AFDD) [1] is a circuit breaker that breaks the circuit when it detects the electric arcs that are a signature of loose connections in home wiring. Loose connections, which can develop over time, can ...

  3. 48-volt electrical system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/48-volt_electrical_system

    A 48V system can provide more power, improve energy recuperation, and allow up to an 85% decrease in cable mass.. 12-volt systems can provide only 3.5 kilowatts, while a 48 V power could achieve 15 to 20 kW or even 50 kW. 48 volts is below the level that is considered safe without special protective measures.

  8. Current clamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_clamp

    Clamp meter. In electrical and electronic engineering, a current clamp, also known as current probe, is an electrical device with jaws which open to allow clamping around an electrical conductor. This allows measurement of the current in a conductor without the need to make physical contact with it, or to disconnect it for insertion through the ...

  9. American wire gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_wire_gauge

    American wire gauge. American Wire Gauge ( AWG) is a logarithmic stepped standardized wire gauge system used since 1857, predominantly in North America, for the diameters of round, solid, nonferrous, electrically conducting wire. Dimensions of the wires are given in ASTM standard B 258. [1] The cross-sectional area of each gauge is an important ...
