elektripistik
connector preferred
  • klemmühenduse element
  • device providing connection and disconnection to a suitable mating component
  • electromechanical device used to create an electrical connection between parts of an electrical circuit, or between different electrical circuits, thereby joining them into a larger circuit
elektripistik
Usage examples
  • Enamikul elektripistikutel on sugu – st et meessoost komponent, mida nimetatakse pistikuks, ühendub naissoost komponendi või pistikupesaga, kusjuures see ühendus võib olla eemaldatav (nagu kaasaskantavate seadmete puhul), nõuda monteerimiseks ja eemaldamiseks tööriista või olla püsiv elektriühendus kahe punkti vahel.
connector preferred
Usage examples
  • Most electrical connectors have a gender – i.e. the male component, called a plug, connects to the female component, or socket, whereby the connection may be removable (as for portable equipment), require a tool for assembly and removal, or serve as a permanent electrical joint between two points.
