Eel :: Eel (n.) An elongated fish of many genera and species. The common eels of Europe and America belong to the genus Anguilla. The electrical eel is a species of Gymnotus. The so called vinegar eel is a minute nematode worm. See Conger eel, Electric eel, and Gymnotus..

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

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

Voltmeter :: Voltmeter (n.) An instrument for measuring in volts the differences of potential between different points of an electrical circuit.

Ground :: Ground (n.) A conducting connection with the earth, whereby the earth is made part of an electrical circuit..

Torpedo :: Torpedo (n.) Any one of numerous species of elasmobranch fishes belonging to Torpedo and allied genera. They are related to the rays, but have the power of giving electrical shocks. Called also crampfish, and numbfish. See Electrical fish, under Electrical..

Repulsion :: Repulsion (n.) The power, either inherent or due to some physical action, by which bodies, or the particles of bodies, are made to recede from each other, or to resist each other's nearer approach; as, molecular repulsion; electrical repulsion..

Electro-kinetics :: Electro-kinetics (n.) That branch of electrical science which treats of electricity in motion.

Elextrometry :: Elextrometry (n.) The art or process of making electrical measurements.

Dynamo-electric :: Dynamo-electric (a.) Pertaining to the development of electricity, especially electrical currents, by power; producing electricity or electrical currents by mechanical power..

Inducteous :: Inducteous (a.) Rendered electro-polar by induction, or brought into the opposite electrical state by the influence of inductive bodies..

Volt :: Volt (n.) The unit of electro-motive force; -- defined by the International Electrical Congress in 1893 and by United States Statute as, that electro-motive force which steadily applied to a conductor whose resistance is one ohm will produce a current of one ampere. It is practically equivalent to / the electro-motive force of a standard Clark's cell at a temperature of 15? C..

Megafarad :: Megafarad (n.) One of the larger measures of electrical capacity, amounting to one million farads; a macrofarad..

Potential :: Potential (n.) The energy of an electrical charge measured by its power to do work; hence, the degree of electrification as referred to some standard, as that of the earth; electro-motive force..

Tasimer :: Tasimer (n.) An instrument for detecting or measuring minute extension or movements of solid bodies. 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..

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

Commutator :: Commutator (n.) A piece of apparatus used for reversing the direction of an electrical current; an attachment to certain electrical machines, by means of which alternating currents are made to be continuous or to have the same direction..

Electro-motive :: Electro-motive (a.) Producing electro-motion; producing, or tending to produce, electricity or an electric current; causing electrical action or effects..

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..

Irritant :: Irritant (n.) Any agent by which irritation is produced; as, a chemical irritant; a mechanical or electrical irritant..
