Transformer :: Transformer (n.) One who, or that which, transforms. Specif. (Elec.), an apparatus for producing from a given electrical current another current of different voltage..

Resistance :: Resistance (n.) A certain hindrance or opposition to the passage of an electrical current or discharge offered by conducting bodies. It bears an inverse relation to the conductivity, -- good conductors having a small resistance, while poor conductors or insulators have a very high resistance. The unit of resistance is the ohm..

Megohm :: Megohm (n.) One of the larger measures of electrical resistance, amounting to one million ohms..

Pyroelectric :: Pyroelectric (n.) A substance which becomes electrically polar when heated, exhibiting opposite charges of statical electricity at two separate parts, especially the two extremities..

Atmosphere :: Atmosphere (n.) A supposed medium around various bodies; as, electrical atmosphere, a medium formerly supposed to surround electrical bodies..

Brush :: Brush (n.) A bundle of flexible wires or thin plates of metal, used to conduct an electrical current to or from the commutator of a dynamo, electric motor, or similar apparatus..

Disruptive :: Disruptive (a.) Causing, or tending to cause, disruption; caused by disruption; breaking through; bursting; as, the disruptive discharge of an electrical battery..

Microcoulomb :: Microcoulomb (n.) A measure of electrical quantity; the millionth part of one coulomb.

Electro-capillarity :: Electro-capillarity (n.) The occurrence or production of certain capillary effects by the action of an electrical current or charge.

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

Rheomotor :: Rheomotor (n.) Any apparatus by which an electrical current is originated.

Electro-polar :: Electro-polar (a.) Possessing electrical polarity; positively electrified at one end, or on one surface, and negatively at the other; -- said of a conductor..

Rheostat :: Rheostat (n.) A contrivance for adjusting or regulating the strength of electrical currents, operating usually by the intercalation of resistance which can be varied at will..

Interrupter :: Interrupter (n.) A device for opening and closing an electrical circuit; a vibrating spring or tuning fork, arranged to make and break a circuit at rapidly recurring intervals, by the action of the current itself..

Zinco-polar :: Zinco-polar (a.) Electrically polarized like the surface of the zinc presented to the acid in a battery, which has zincous affinity..

Electrical :: Electrical (a.) Capable of occasioning the phenomena of electricity; as, an electric or electrical machine or substance..

Galvanoscope :: Galvanoscope (n.) An instrument or apparatus for detecting the presence of electrical currents, especially such as are of feeble intensity..

Electrically :: Electrically (adv.) In the manner of electricity, or by means of it; thrillingly..

Discharger :: Discharger (n.) One who, or that which, discharges. Specifically, in electricity, an instrument for discharging a Leyden jar, or electrical battery, by making a connection between the two surfaces; a discharging rod..
