hardener
Electronic components; Capacitors
A substance or mixture of substances added to plastic composition, or an adhesive to promote or control the curing reaction by taking part in it.
harmonic
Electronic components; Capacitors
An integral multiple of the fundamental frequency (60 Hz) that becomes a component of the current.
harmonic distortion
Electronic components; Capacitors
Distortion of an AC waveform caused by multiples of the fundamental frequency (harmonics). Odd triplet harmonics (thirds, ninths, etc.) may result in large currents on the neutral line in a ...
heat sink
Electronic components; Capacitors
Any device that absorbs and draws off heat from a hot object, radiating it into the surrounding atmosphere.
hertz
Electronic components; Capacitors
A term replacing cycles -per-second as an indication of frequency.
