Voltmeter :: Voltmeter (n.) An instrument for measuring in volts the differences of potential between different points of an electrical circuit.

Reel :: Reel (n.) A machine on which yarn is wound and measured into lays and hanks, -- for cotton or linen it is fifty-four inches in circuit; for worsted, thirty inches..

Windlass :: Windlass (n.) A winding and circuitous way; a roundabout course; a shift.

Base :: Base (n.) Any one of the four bounds which mark the circuit of the infield.

Short Circuit :: Short circuit () A circuit formed or closed by a conductor of relatively low resistance because shorter or of relatively great conductivity.

Electrotonic :: Electrotonic (a.) Of or pertaining to electrical tension; -- said of a supposed peculiar condition of a conducting circuit during its exposure to the action of another conducting circuit traversed by a uniform electric current when both circuits remain stationary.

Circuiteer :: Circuiteer (n.) A circuiter.

Cut-out :: Cut-out (n.) A species of switch for changing the current from one circuit to another, or for shortening a circuit..

Wend :: Wend (n.) A large extent of ground; a perambulation; a circuit.

Circuit :: Circuit (n.) The act of moving or revolving around, or as in a circle or orbit; a revolution; as, the periodical circuit of the earth round the sun..

Interrupter :: Interrupter (n.) A device for opening and closing an electrical circuit; a vibrating spring or tuning fork, arranged to make and break a circuit at rapidly recurring intervals, by the action of the current itself..

Roundabout :: Roundabout (a.) Circuitous; going round; indirect; as, roundabout speech..

Tasimer :: Tasimer (n.) An instrument for detecting or measuring minute extension or movements of solid bodies. It consists essentially of a small rod, disk, or button of carbon, forming part of an electrical circuit, the resistance of which, being varied by the changes of pressure produced by the movements of the object to be measured, causes variations in the strength of the current, which variations are indicated by a sensitive galvanometer. It is also used for measuring minute changes of temperature..
