Theoretical knowledge of electricians, 39 technical terms for the electrician industry

The electrician's master knows that the theoretical knowledge of electricians is very important. Theoretical knowledge can guide practical experience to a certain extent. It is the foundation of electrician development. Of course, it is also very important to have electricians mastering some of the electrician terminology. Otherwise, it will inevitably be awkward to communicate with professionals!

11, self-inductance: When the current in the closed loop changes, the flux generated by this changing current and passing through the loop itself will change. In this loop, the induced electromotive force will be generated. This phenomenon is called Self-inductance phenomenon. This induced electromotive force is called self-induced electromotive force. The coefficient of proportionality between the flux that passes through the area enclosed by the loop and the current that produces this flux is called the self-inductance coefficient of the loop, referred to simply as the self-inductance.

31. Reactive power: In a circuit with an inductance or capacitance, the energy of the power source becomes stored in the magnetic field (or electric field) during a period of half a cycle, and stored in a magnetic field during the other half of the cycle.
