According to good engineering practice, line performance losses should be kept below 0.5dB or a maximum of 0.25 dB. Factors that lead to this loss include impedance of the speaker, cable length, cable gauge and amplifier impedance. Suggested wire gauges for different distances and impedances are...
15 gauge wire was wrapped around a drinking glass to create this beaded bangle bracelet. The thickness of the wire ensures the bracelet won't loose its circular form or dig into the arm when leaning on surfaces. Video of the Day Image Credit:Lindsey Crafter Wire-Wrapped Rings 20 gauge wire...
3Slide the compression sleeveonto the bare wire ends, and then crimp the sleeve with a multipurpose tool or the end of a wire cutter that’s made for crimping rather than cutting. Remember that the bare metal sleeve and the bare wires will conduct electricity! At the very least, wrap thi...
American Wire Gauge (AWG) is the standard way to denote wire size in North America. In AWG, the larger the number, the smaller the wire diameter and thickness. The largest standard size is 0000 AWG, and 40 AWG is the smallest standard size. It may also be calledBrown & Sharpe wire g...
Above I'm showing the wire strip-back gauge area marked on the back of a 15A electrical receptacle. This gauge shows the amount of insulation that should be removed presumably for either of the types of connectors provided on this particular device. For the device shown above we are to re...
When working with small components, it's often better to use a very thin piece of solder -- the larger then number, the smaller the gauge. For large components, thicker wire is recommended. Last, solder comes in other forms besides wire. When getting into surface-mount soldering, you'll ...
size. While larger gauge wire can actually help an amp work a little easier and cooler when driving speakers by lowering cable impedance (resistivity), the impact on signal cables is negligible. That is, it’s inaudible to anyone who didn’t pay a lot for a f...
Use a combination tool or wire stripper to remove about 3/4 inch of outer insulation off of both ends of each wire. Step 3 Bryan Trandem Run the cords: Thread the cords through the lamp—the long one up through the base of the lamp, and the shorter lengths through the socket channels...
Soft soldering is a technique used to join wires, fix electronic components onto circuit boards and bond copper pipes together. This tutorial shows you how to solder step by step.
