Circuit :: Circuit (n.) A regular or appointed journeying from place to place in the exercise of one's calling, as of a judge, or a preacher..

Ohm :: Ohm (n.) The standard unit in the measure of electrical resistance, being the resistance of a circuit in which a potential difference of one volt produces a current of one ampere. As defined by the International Electrical Congress in 1893, and by United States Statute, it is a resistance substantially equal to 109 units of resistance of the C.G.S. system of electro-magnetic units, and is represented by the resistance offered to an unvarying electric current by a column of mercury at the tempera

Double :: Double (n.) A turn or circuit in running to escape pursues; hence, a trick; a shift; an artifice..

It consists essentially of a small rod, disk, or button of carbon, forming part of an electrical circuit, the resistance of which, being varied by the changes of pressure produced by the movements of the object to be measured, causes variations in the strength of the current, which variations are indicated by a sensitive galvanometer. It is also used for measuring minute changes of temperature..

Electro-motion :: Electro-motion (n.) The motion of electricity or its passage from one metal to another in a voltaic circuit; mechanical action produced by means of electricity.

Switched :: Switch (n.) A mechanical device for shifting an electric current to another circuit.

Round :: Round (adv.) By or in a circuit; by a course longer than the direct course; back to the starting point.

Relay :: Relay (n.) In various forms of telegraphic apparatus, a magnet which receives the circuit current, and is caused by it to bring into into action the power of a local battery for performing the work of making the record; also, a similar device by which the current in one circuit is made to open or close another circuit in which a current is passing..

Tour :: Tour (v. t.) A going round; a circuit; hence, a journey in a circuit; a prolonged circuitous journey; a comprehensive excursion; as, the tour of Europe; the tour of France or England..

Circuit :: Circuit (v. t.) To travel around.

Break-circuit :: Break-circuit (n.) A key or other device for breaking an electrical circuit.

Circuit :: Circuit (n.) A certain division of a state or country, established by law for a judge or judges to visit, for the administration of justice..

County :: County (n.) A circuit or particular portion of a state or kingdom, separated from the rest of the territory, for certain purposes in the administration of justice and public affairs; -- called also a shire. See Shire..
