Definition of "Conduit" |
A tubular raceway for power or data cables. Both metallic conduit and non-metallic forms may be used. / A tubular raceway, usually metal or plastic, for holding wires or cables. Also refer to MIL-PRF-24758 for specific definitions. All conduit, whether used for power distribution wiring, or for signal and control wiring, should be grounded. A bulk one-piece item of rigid metal, nonmetallic material, or flexible metal construction used to protect wires and/or cable from damage due to water, gas, rodents, collision, or the like. The ends of a conduit may be threaded and furnished with a standard coupling and/or thread protectors. Conduit differs from pipe and tubing in that it is not normally used to conduct fluids. / A channel for holding and protecting conductors and cables, made of metal or an insulating material, usually circular in cross section like a pipe. Also referred to as Duct. / An electrical conduit is a tubing system used for protection and routing of electrical wiring. Electrical conduit may be made of metal, plastic, fiber, or fired clay. Flexible conduit is available for special purposes. / A Colpitts oscillator, invented in 1918 by American engineer Edwin H. Colpitts, is one of a number of designs for LC oscillators, electronic oscillators that use a combination of inductors and capacitors to produce an oscillation at a certain frequency. The distinguishing feature of the Colpitts oscillator is that the feedback for the active device is taken from a voltage divider made of two capacitors in series across the inductor. / a pipe through which an electrical cables are laid. |
