charge
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
The amount of electricity present upon the capacitor's plates. Also, the act of forcing of electrons onto the capacitor's plates. See Coulomb.
conductance
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
The reciprocal of resistance. It is the ratio of current passing through a material to the potential difference at its ends.
conductivity
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
Reciprocal of volume resistivity. Conductance of a unit cube of any material.
conductor
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
An electrical path which offers comparatively little resistance. A wire or combination of wires not insulated from one another, suitable for carrying a single electric current.
corona
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
A luminous discharge due to ionization of the gas surrounding a conductor around which exists a voltage gradient exceeding a certain critical value. A type of discharge--sometimes ...
corona resistance
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
The time that insulation will withstand a specified level field-intensified ionization that does not result in the immediate complete breakdown of the insulation.
coulomb
Electrical equipment; Capacitors
A unit of electric charge. It is named after Charles-Augustin de Coulomb. 1 coulomb is the amount of electric charge transported by a current of 1 ampere in 1 second. It can also ...
