Self induction
Induction in a circuit due to the action of one portion of a current upon an adjacent portion during periods of varying current strength The nature of the induction is such as to oppose the action which produces it...
Impedance
The apparent resistance in an electric circuit to the flow of an alternating current analogous to the actual electrical resistance to a direct current being the ratio of electromotive force to the current It is equal to R2 X2 where R ohmic resistance X reactance For an inductive circuit X 2pifL where f frequency and L self inductance for a circuit with capacity X 1 divide 2pifC where C capacity...
Reactance
The influence of a coil of wire upon an alternating current passing through it tending to choke or diminish the current or the similar influence of a condenser inductive resistance Reactance is measured in ohms The reactance of a circuit is equal to the component of the impressed electro motive force at right angles to the current divided by the current that is the component of the impedance due to the self inductance or capacity of the circuit...
Induction
Induction [fr. inductio, Lat., a leading into], the giving a parson possession of his church.A clerk is not complete incumbent until induction, which is performed by a mandate from the bishop to the archdeacon, or if the church be exempt from arch diaconal jurisdiction, to the chancellor or commissary, or if it be a peculiar, to the dean or judge, who usually issues a precept to another clergyman to perform it for him.The person who inducts takes the hand of the clerk, and lays it on the ring, key, or latch of the church-door, or wall of the church, or delivers a clod, turf, or twig of the glebe, and gives corporal possession of the church, saying:--By virtue of this mandate I induct you into the real, actual, and corporal possession of the church of [Stow], with all rights, profits, and appurtenances thereto belonging.'Induction is the investiture of the temporal part of the benefice or the corporal seisin, as institution (see INSTITUTION), which may take place anywhere, whereas induc...
Self excite
To energize or excite the field magnets of a dynamo by induction from the residual magnetism of its cores leading all or a part of the current thus produced through the field magnet coils...
Inducteous
Rendered electro polar by induction or brought into the opposite electrical state by the influence of inductive bodies...
Inductional

Induction generator
A machine built as an induction motor and driven above synchronous speed thus acting as an alternating current generator called also asynchronous generator Below synchronism the machine takes in electrical energy and acts as an induction motor at synchronism the power component of current becomes zero and changes sign so that above synchronism the machine driven for this purpose by mechanical power gives out electrical energy as a generator...
