Capacitors
Tracking
Electronic components; Capacitors
Scintillation of the surface of an insulator, may produce enough heat to leave a degraded track of carbon.
Transients
Electronic components; Capacitors
High voltage surges through an electrical system caused by lightning strikes to nearby transformers, overhead lines, or the ground. May also be caused by switching of motors and compressors, as well ...
UL (Underwriters' Laboratories, Inc)
Electronic components; Capacitors
Laboratory that sets safety standards for building materials, electrical appliances, and other products.
Yield strength
Electronic components; Capacitors
The lowest stress at which a material undergoes plastic deformation. Below this stress, the material is elastic; above it, viscous.
Volt
Electronic components; Capacitors
Unit of Electromotive Force. It is the difference of potential required to make a current of one ampere flow through a resistance of one ohm.
Viscosity
Electronic components; Capacitors
A measure of the resistance of a fluid to flow (usually through a specific orifice).
Vinyl resin
Electronic components; Capacitors
A synthetic resin formed by the polymerization of compounds containing the group CH2 = CH-.
