The rate at which electrical energy is extracted from an electrical device is quantified in watts, calculated as the product of voltage and amperage.  

The advancement of wave configuration in an alternating current relative to the initial reference point of each cycle. Typically quantified in degrees, where a full 360-degree rotation corresponds to the completion of a single cycle.  

A mechanism that transforms electrical energy into mechanical energy is known as an electrical-to-mechanical converter.  

The quantity of electric power consumed from a power line, generator, or any other power source.  

In an electric capacitor or condenser that stores electrical energy on the insulated surface of the parallel plates, an escape or leak of energy may occur. This loss or leak of energy cannot be corrected and the replacement of the Capacitor is necessary.  

A point of connection where two wires or conductive pathways intersect to facilitate the flow of electric current. Permanently established joints are soldered, while temporary joints are secured using spring clips or screws.  

When contemplating an electrical circuit, one must duly consider the magnitude of electric charge flowing through it, commonly referred to as current. It is worth noting that this particular term, current, can at times be used interchangeably with intensity or amperage.  

An electrode positioned between the cathode and anode of an x-ray tube, which regulates the movement of electrons from the cathode to the anode.  

One of the fundamental principles in electrostatics states that electrons tend to accumulate on the outer regions of a solid conductor. This behavior is a result of the repulsion between like charges, causing the electrons to spread out and reside at the greater distance on the conductor’s external surface.  

The electrical current supply taken from the armature of a generator.
