Modern Slavery Statement

2017-02-06T07:35:41Z

WikiSysop:

Section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 requires commercial organisations to prepare a slavery and human trafficking statement for each financial year of the organisation. The statement must set out the steps that the organisation has taken during the financial year to ensure that slavery and human trafficking is not taking place in any of its supply chains, and in any part of its own business.

The Modern Slavery Statement for Edis Trading (HK) limited is provided below

'''Modern Slavery Statement'''

Introduction
This statement sets out Edis Trading (HK) Limited's actions to understand all potential modern slavery risks related to its business and to put in place steps that are aimed at ensuring that there is no slavery or human trafficking in its own business and its supply chains. This statement relates to actions and activities during the financial year 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2016.
As part of the Audio Visual and Electronics sector, the organisation recognises that it has a responsibility to take a robust approach to slavery and human trafficking.
The organisation is absolutely committed to preventing slavery and human trafficking in its corporate activities, and to ensuring that its supply chains are free from slavery and human trafficking.
Organisational structure and supply chains
This statement covers the activities of Edis Trading (HK) Limited
·      Edis designs and sub-contracts the manufacture of Audio Visual and Electronics products in China, exporting these goods worldwide
Countries of operation and supply
The organisation currently operates in the following countries:
·      Edis Trading (HK) Limited is a Hong Kong registered company with a manufacturing base in China
The following is the process by which the company assesses whether or not particular activities or countries are high risk in relation to slavery or human trafficking:
·      Edis imposes initial supplier evaluation and ongoing risk assessment processes in relation to slavery and human trafficking.
High-risk activities
The following activities are considered to be at high risk of slavery or human trafficking:
·      Edis considers that it has no high risk of slavery or human trafficking in it's supply chain
Responsibility
Responsibility for the organisation's anti-slavery initiatives is as follows :
·      Policies: The Managing Director is responsible for putting in place and reviewing policies and the processes by which they are developed.
·      Risk assessments: Initial supplier evaluation and ongoing risk assessment processes are conducted in relation to slavery and human trafficking as part of Quality assessment and ongoing Quality and Supplier reviews
·      Investigations/due diligence: The Managing Director is responsible for investigations and due diligence in relation to known or suspected instances of slavery and human trafficking.
·      Training: Internal training is provided within the company, to better understand and respond to any identified slavery and human trafficking risks.

Relevant policies
The organisation operates the following policies that describe its approach to the identification of modern slavery risks and steps to be taken to prevent slavery and human trafficking in its operations :
·      Whistleblowing policy The organisation encourages all its workers, customers and other business partners to report any concerns related to the direct activities, or the supply chains of, the organisation. This includes any circumstances that may give rise to an enhanced risk of slavery or human trafficking. The organisation's whistleblowing procedure is designed to make it easy for workers to make disclosures, without fear of retaliation. Employees, customers or others who have concerns can use our confidential disclosure process.
·      Employee code of conduct The organisation's code makes clear to employees the actions and behaviour expected of them when representing the organisation. The organisation strives to maintain the highest standards of employee conduct and ethical behaviour when operating abroad and managing its supply chain.
·      Supplier code of conduct The organisation is committed to ensuring that its suppliers adhere to the highest standards of ethics. Suppliers are required to demonstrate that they provide safe working conditions where necessary, treat workers with dignity and respect, and act ethically and within the law in their use of labour. The organisation works with suppliers to ensure that they meet the standards of the code and improve their worker's working conditions. However, serious violations of the organisation's supplier code of conduct will lead to the termination of the business relationship.
·      Recruitment policy The organisation uses only specified, reputable employment agencies to source labour and always verifies the practices of any new agency it is using before accepting workers from that agency.

Due diligence
The organisation undertakes due diligence when considering taking on new suppliers, and regularly reviews its existing suppliers. The organisation's due diligence and reviews include:
·      mapping the supply chain broadly to assess particular product or geographical risks of modern slavery and human trafficking;
·      evaluating the modern slavery and human trafficking risks of each new supplier;
·      reviewing on a regular basis all aspects of the supply chain based on the supply chain mapping;
·      conducting supplier audits or assessments through the organisation's own staff, which have a greater degree of focus on slavery and human trafficking where general risks are identified;
·      creating an annual risk profile for each supplier;
·      taking steps to improve substandard suppliers' practices, including providing advice to suppliers and requiring them to implement action plans ;
·      invoking sanctions against suppliers that fail to improve their performance in line with an action plan or seriously violate our supplier code of conduct, including the termination of the business relationship.

Performance indicators
The organisation has reviewed its key performance indicators (KPIs) in light of the introduction of the Modern Slavery Act 2015. As a result, the organisation :
·      requires all supply chain managers to have completed training on modern slavery;
·      implements a system for supply chain verification, whereby the organisation evaluates potential suppliers before they enter the supply chain; and
·      reviews its existing supply chains on yearly audit dates, whereby the organisation evaluates all existing suppliers.
Training
The organisation requires supply chain managers within the organisation to complete training on modern slavery.
The organisation requires supply chain managers to undertake training sessions that are included in recruitment processes.
The organisation's modern slavery training covers :
·      our business's purchasing practices, which influence supply chain conditions and which should therefore be designed to prevent purchases at unrealistically low prices, the use of labour engaged on unrealistically low wages, or the provision of products by an unrealistic deadline;
·      how to assess the risk of slavery and human trafficking in relation to various aspects of the business, including resources and support available;
·      how to identify the signs of slavery and human trafficking;
·      what initial steps should be taken if slavery or human trafficking is suspected;
·      how to escalate potential slavery or human trafficking issues to the relevant parties within the organisation;
·      what external help is available, for example through the Modern Slavery Helpline, Gangmasters Licensing Authority and "Stronger together" initiative;
·      what messages, business incentives or guidance can be given to suppliers and other business partners and contractors to implement anti-slavery policies; and
·      what steps the organisation should take if suppliers or contractors do not implement anti-slavery policies in high-risk scenarios, including their removal from the organisation's supply chains.
Awareness-raising programme
As well as training staff, the organisation has raised awareness of modern slavery issues as part of general staff training processes.
The training explains to staff :
·      the basic principles of the Modern Slavery Act 2015;
·      how employers can identify and prevent slavery and human trafficking;
·      what employees can do to flag up potential slavery or human trafficking issues to the relevant parties within the organisation; and
·      what external help is available, for example through the Modern Slavery Helpline.
Board approval
This statement has been approved by the organisation's board of directors, who will review and update it annually.

==Can I buy Edis products with my own logo and branding?==
Edis designed and branded products are not available as OEM products with your own branding but we do provide a limited service to source and control the manufacture of your own products, [http://www.edistrading.hk/productmanufacturing.php?manufacturing=manufacturing please see this page on our website] where this is feasible and and fits with our business model.

==Who owns the copyright and design rights to Edis products?==
Copyright and designs of Edis products are wholly owned by Edis Trading (HK) limited with the added protection of design registration in many cases. This enables us to offer you some protection against others selling counterfeit or passing off Edis products in your market.

==What happens after I place an order, how is shipping and delivery arranged etc?==
After receiving your order we would invoice you for a 30% downpayment. Manufacture and inspection would proceed, we would then invoice you for the 70% final payment, we act as [[Glossary of importing, shipping and banking terms#Shipper|shipper]] and arrange shipping through your forwarding agent, or ours if you prefer, and then load the goods into a container and onto a vessel (container ship normally). We then provide you (or your local [[Glossary of importing, shipping and banking terms#Forwarding Agent or Freight Forwarder|forwarding/clearing agent]]) with a full set of documents (3 originals and 3 copies) including [[Glossary of importing, shipping and banking terms#(B/L) Bill of Lading|Bill of Lading]], [[Glossary of importing, shipping and banking terms#Packing List|Packing list]] and [[Glossary of importing, shipping and banking terms#Commercial Invoice|Commercial invoice]] which we send by courier such as DHL, TNT, UPS etc.. In Europe you would have to pay both the [[Glossary of importing, shipping and banking terms#Customs_Duty|import duties]] (if any) and [[Glossary of importing, shipping and banking terms#(VAT) Value Added Tax|VAT]] to release the goods from customs. Using the shipping documents that we provide, your local agent would clear the goods through customs and arrange delivery to your premises.

==How long would it normally take for goods to arrive after we place an order?==
For container loads of product the normal manufacturing time is about 25 to 30 days, shipping time varies around the world but typically it takes 20-30 days sailing time to a main port in Europe. For smaller orders or Less than container loads the manufacture time is often extended so that we can aggregate orders and then consolidate containers. We have this year (2010) opened a new warehouse and some key products will be held in stock to service smaller orders of mixed goods in a containers.

==How many of my goods will fit into a container?==
We can provide you with an estimate and you can calculate full or mixed product [[Glossary of importing, shipping and banking terms#Glossary of Shipping Container terms|container loads]].

==How much will it cost to ship goods to me?==
Shipping costs depend on the port of destination, the size of the container and the distance to your premises. We can provide estimates for shipping charges but for clearance and delivery you would be best advised to talk to a local forwarding/clearing agent in your own country. Typical seafreight costs for shipping to Europe are US$2,000 for a 20' GP container and about US$3,500 for a 40' GP container. Costs vary according to time of year, fuel surcharges and to some extent exchange rates etc

==Do I need marine insurance for goods that I buy or is this included in the price?==
Yes you need marine all-risks insurance for your purchases to cover from factory to your warehouse. If you have several shipments a year a single annual premium is a much lower cost than buying insurance for separate consignments (in our experience the annual charge is often the same as a single one-off consignment rate)

Glossary of Audio Visual Terms - A useful selection of common technical terms used in an audio visual context

[[File:AV4.jpg]]

== AWG American Wire Gauge ==

American wire gauge (AWG), also known as the Brown & Sharpe wire gauge, is a standardized wire gauge system used since 1857 predominantly in the United States for the diameters of round, solid, nonferrous, electrically conducting wire. The cross-sectional area of each gauge is an important factor for determining its current-carrying capacity. Often seen in standards and specifications for audio and video cables. '''See also ...''' [[AWG and Metric Wire Sizes|AWG and metric wire sizes and electrical parameters]]

== Balanced and Unbalanced Audio (and microphones) ==

'''Unbalanced Audio''' Most domestic audio equipment has unbalanced audio inputs and outputs. This means that the audio output (left, right, or mono) appears on a single wire, and the other wire is connected to earth (Ground). Typical connectors used are RCA "phono" connectors, DIN plugs/sockets, and 6.3mm or 3.5mm jack plugs/sockets.

Unbalanced audio is fine for the domestic environment, and for line-level signals in a typical broadcast studio. Problems start to occur if the signals are being carried over long distances, where interference affects the signal wire and especially if the source and destination have separate mains supplies.

'''Balanced Audio'''

A lot of professional equipment will have balanced audio inputs and outputs, usually on 3-pin "XLR" connectors. A balanced audio signal consists of a pair of wires carrying the audio signal with a separate earth wire or screen.When one signal wire carries a positive voltage, the other carries an equal and opposite negative voltage.

The 3 wires used in a typical XLR lead are often referred to as Ground, Live and Return, or Ground, Hot and Cold. "Live" and "Return" carry the "positive" and "negative" elements of the signal respectively. Calling the signals "Live" and "Return" makes it nice and easy to remember which goes on which pin of the XLR plug/socket:

'''X = Ground L = Live R = Return'''

The advantage of balanced audio over unbalanced audio is it's ability to reject external interference. The receiving equipment takes the voltage difference between the two wires as the input signal. Interference will usually get added to both wires equally, and so gets ignored by the receiving equipment.

Recording and broadcast studios commonly use phantom powering as a means to provide power to microphones. Power may be needed either for a device that requires power such as a pre-amp on an electret microphone or because the mic is a type that intrinsically requires powering such as a condenser microphone. Since the microphone has only one pair of wires the return path for the power has to be provided elswhere. This is usually done via the "phantom" circuit (the centre point of a transformer winding) and the microphone cable screen (ground).

[["All you need to know about microphones"]] is a useful but a little lengthy article summarising microphone types and their uses.

== Cat 5 Cable ==

Category 5 cable, is a twisted pair (4 pairs) high signal integrity cable type often referred to as "Cat5". Many such cables are unshielded (UTP) but some are shielded (STP). Category 5 has been superseded by the Category 5e specification structured cabling for computer networks such as Ethernet, and is also used to carry many other signals such as basic voice services, token ring, and ATM (at up to 155 Mbit/s, over short distances). Equipment is available for transmitting VGA and other audio video signals over Cat 5 cable.

[[Image:RJ45.jpg]]

== CE mark ==

[[Image:CE.jpg]]

The CE marking (also known as CE mark) is a mandatory conformity mark on many products sold in the European Economic Area (EEA). The CE marking certifies that a product has met EU consumer safety, health or environmental requirements.

The CE marking (an acronym for the French "Conformite Europeenne") certifies that a product has met EU health, safety, and environmental requirements, which ensure consumer safety. Manufacturers in the European Union (EU) and abroad must meet CE marking requirements where applicable in order to market their products in Europe.

Unfortunately, there is no comprehensive list of the products that require a CE marking. Therefore, it is the manufacturer's responsibility to determine if a product requires a CE marking.

To permit the use of a CE mark on a product, proof that the item meets the relevant requirements must be documented. Sometimes this is achieved using an external test house which evaluates the product and its documentation. Often it is achieved by a company-internal self-certification process. In any case the responsible organization (manufacturer, representative, importer) has to issue a EC-Declaration of Conformity (EC-DoC) indicating its identity (location, etc.), the list of European Directives it is declaring compliance with, a list of standards the product complies with, and a legally binding signature on behalf of the organization. The EC-DoC underlines the sole responsibility of the manufacturer.

Some examples for which manufacturers can self-certify (which apply to AV products) include:

*'''[[Electro magnetic compatibility|Electromagnetic Compatibility]]''' (EMC) Directive
*'''[[Low voltage directive|Low Voltage Directive]]'''(LVD)
*Most products covered by the Radio and Telecommunications Terminal Equipment (R&TTE) Directive

== CD: Compact Disc ==

Compact Disc. Ubiquitous digital audio format. Uses 16-bit/44.1-kHz sampling rate PCM digital signal to encode roughly 74 or 80 minutes of two-channel, full-range audio onto a 5-inch disc.

'''CD-R'''

Recordable Compact Disc

'''CD-RW'''

Rewritable Compact Disc

== Component Video ==

'''Component video signal'''

A signal that's recorded or transmitted in its separate components. Typically refers to Y/Pb/Pr, which consists of three 75-ohm channels: one for luminance information, and two for color. Compared with an S-video signal, a Y/Pb/Pr signal carries more color detail. HDTV, DVD, and DBS are component video sources, though most DBS material is transcoded to component from composite signals

'''Component Video''' Component Video is a method of delivering quality video (RGB) in a format that contains all the components of the original image. These components are referred to as luma and chroma and are defined as Y'Pb'Pr' for analogue component and Y'Cb'Cr' for digital component.

Component video is available on some DVD players and projectors and normally uses 3 separate RCA connectors.

== Composite Video ==

The combined picture signal, including vertical and horizontal blanking and synchronizing signals transmitted in a single cable which is often fitted with a yellow RCA connector.

== Connectors ==

=== Banana Plug ===

[[Image:Banana plug.jpg]]

A banana connector (commonly banana plug for the male, banana jack for the female) is a single-wire (one conductor) electrical connector used for joining wires to equipment. The plugs are frequently used to terminate patch cords for electronic test equipment. They are also used as the plugs on the cables connecting the amplifier to the loudspeakers in a hi-fi sound system.

=== DVI connector ===

[[Image:Dvi-cable-150.jpg]]

The Digital Visual Interface (DVI) is a video interface standard designed to maximize the visual quality of digital display devices such as flat panel LCD computer displays and digital projectors. DVI was developed by the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG). This interface provides a high-speed connection for visual data that is display technology independent. DVI interface primarily focused at providing a connection between computer and display device.

See Also: [[DVI connections]]

=== HDMI connector ===

[[Image:Hdmi-2.jpg]]

HDMI - High-Definition Multimedia Interface. HDMI was developed by Hitachi, Matsushita, Royal Philips, Silicon Image, Sony, Thomson and Toshiba. There are three different connector types: Type A for single-link connection, Type B for dual-link (very high resolutions) connection, and Type C for video cameras, etc.

See also : [[HDMI connections|'''HDMI connections''']]

=== Phono connector ===

An RCA jack, also referred to as a phono connector or Cinch connector, is a type of electrical connector that is commonly used in the audio/video market. The name "RCA" derives from the Radio Corporation of America, which introduced the design by the early 1940s to allow mono phonograph players to be connected to amplifiers.

=== RCA Connectors (CINCH/AV) ===

[[Image:RCA connect.jpg]]

A connector designed for coaxial cables, though often used on twin audio cable too, carrying line-level audio signals or speaker connections.  An RCA jack, also called a phono connector or CINCH/AV connector, is a type of electrical connector that is commonly used in the audio/video market. The name "RCA" derives from the Radio Corporation of America , which introduced the design by the early 1940s to allow phonograph players to be connected to amplifiers. For many other applications it began to replace the older jack plugs used in the audio world when component high fidelity started becoming popular in the 1950s. The corresponding plug is called an RCA plug or a phono plug, as opposed to a phone plug.

[[RCA connections]] includes RCA to mini-jack connections

=== RJ11 : Registered Jack-11 ===

[[Image:RJ11.jpg]]

A telephone connector that holds up to four wires. The RJ-11 is the common connector used to plug a telephone handset into the telephone and in some cases the telephone into the wall (in UK a BT connector is used) . A six-wire variation of RJ-11 is also used.

[[RJ11 connections]]

=== RJ45 : Registered Jack - 45 ===

[[Image:RJ45.jpg]]

Eight wire RJ45 connectors used with Ethernet and Token ring type networks. The common form of Datacomms connector used in office wiring systems often called Cat 5 connector.

[[RJ45 connections]]

=== TRS - Tip Ring Sleeve (Audio Jack, 3.5mm Mini Jack 6.3mm Jack) ===

[[Image:TRS.jpg]]

A TRS connector (tip, ring, sleeve) also called an audio jack, phone plug, jack plug, stereo plug, mini-jack, or mini-stereo, is a common audio connector. It is cylindrical in shape, typically with three contacts, although sometimes with two (a TS connector) or four (a TRRS connector). It was invented for use in telephone switchboards in the 19th century and is still widely used, both in its original 1/4" (6.3 mm) size and in miniaturized versions 1/8" (3.5 mm) and 3/32" (2.5 mm). The connector's name is an initialism derived from the names of three conducting parts of the plug: Tip, Ring, and Sleeve – hence, TRS.

In the UK, the terms jack plug and jack socket are commonly used for the respectively male and female TRS connectors

[[TRS connections]]

=== Speakon Connector ===

[[Image:Speakon.jpg]]

The Speakon is an audio cable connector, originally manufactured by Neutrik, mostly used in professional audio systems for connecting loudspeakers to amplifiers. The same manufacturer produces another connector dubbed PowerCon, which is designed to carry mains power rather than audio signal. The audio and power designs cannot connect to each other.

A Speakon connector is designed with a locking system that may be designed for soldered or screw-type connections. Line connectors (female) mate with (male) panel connectors and typically a cable will have identical connectors at both ends. If it is needed to join cables, a coupler can be used (which essentially consists of two panel connectors mounted on the ends of a plastic tube).
Speakon connectors are a higher current carrying alternative to TS connectors (1/4-inch phone jacks), two-pole twist lock, and XLR connectors for loudspeakers. Speakon connectors lock into their sockets with a twisting motion, making them significantly less prone to disconnection than standard TRS plugs.

Speakon connectors are fully shielded from human touch, preventing electrical shock risks associated with high power audio amplifiers and unshielded connections. Speakon contacts do not short out upon connection or disconnection, which can happen to the 1/4-inch plug as it is being plugged in. This can be a benefit when working with sound equipment that is in operation.
Speakon connectors are designed to be unambiguous in their use in speaker cables. With jack and XLR connections, it is possible to use low-current shielded microphone or instrument cables in a high-current speaker application. Speakon cables are intended solely for use in high current audio applications.

Speakon connectors are made in two, four and eight-pole configurations. The two-pole line connector will mate with the four-pole panel connector, connecting to +1 and −1; but the reverse combination will not work. The eight-pole connector is physically larger to accommodate the extra poles. The four-pole connector is the most common at least from the availability of ready-made leads, as it allows for things like Bi-amping (two of the four connections for the higher-frequency signal, with the other two for the lower-frequency signal) without two separate cables. Similarly, the eight-pole connector could be used for Tri-amping (two poles each for low, mid and high frequencies with two unused), or quad-amping (two poles each for high, mid, low and sub).

Another use for the four-pole cable is to carry two channels of amplified signal from an amplifier to a pair of loudspeakers using a 'combiner' Y-lead connected to the two output channels, and a 'splitter' Y-lead to feed the loudspeakers. Essentially the 'combiner' and 'splitter' Y-leads are the same - three four pole line connectors with a 2-core cable between +1 and -1 on two connectors, and the remaining +2 and -2 on one connecter to +1 and -1 on the third. Some amplifiers and mixer-amplifiers are configured to do this without the need for a 'combiner'.

=== S-Video Connector ===

[[Image:S-Video.jpg|150x150px]]

S-Video is commonly used in many consumer TVs, DVD players, video tape recorders, game consoles and almost all TV-out connectors of graphics cards.

[[S-Video connections]]

=== VGA connector ===

[[Image:VGA cable.jpg]]

A VGA connector as it is commonly known (other names include RGB connector, D-sub 15, mini sub D15 and mini D15) is a three-row 15 pin DE-15 connector (ie a D sub-miniature connector with E size case and 15 pins).

'''See Also ''': [[VGA Connections|'''VGA Connections''']] for pin-out details etc and this article [http://www.edis-audio-visual.com/Articles/VGA%20cables%20and%20connectors%20for%20projectors%20and%20monitors.pdf '''VGA cables and connectors for Projectors and monitors'''] which covers VGA cable and connector designs and how to avoid interference.

[[VGA Connections]]

=== XLR connector ===

[[Image:XLR.jpg]]

The XLR connector is an electrical connector design. XLR plugs and sockets are used mostly in professional audio and video electronics cabling applications where a "balanced" connection is used allowing long lengths of cable to be used without excessive interference. Home audio and video electronics normally use RCA connectors (not balanced).

=== USB ===

See below [[Glossary AV terms#USB (Universal Serial Bus)|USB (Universal Serial Bus)]]

== DDC - Display Data Channel ==

The Display Data Channel or DDC is a digital connection between a computer display (monitor or projector usually) and a graphics adapter that allows the display to communicate its specifications to the adapter and adjust parameters such as brightness and contrast from the computer host. The standard was created by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA). Extra wires can be included in VGA cables to enable DDC operation.

== Decibel (dB) ==

The decibel (dB) is used to measure sound level, but it is also widely used in electronics, signals and communication. The dB is a logarithmic unit used to describe a ratio. The ratio may be power, sound pressure, voltage or intensity or several other things.

A whisper is about 20 dB. A normal conversation is typically from 60 to 70 dB, and a noisy factory from 90 to 100 dB. Loud thunder is approximately 110 dB, and 120 dB borders on the threshold of pain.

== DI Unit ==

A DI unit, DI box, Direct Box or simply DI is an electronic device that connects a high impedance, line level, unbalanced output signal to a low impedance mic level balanced input, usually via XLR connector. DIs are frequently used to connect an electric guitar or electric bass to a mixing console's microphone input. The DI performs level matching, balancing, and either active buffering or passive impedance bridging to minimise noise, distortion, and ground loops. DIs do not perform impedance matching.

== Dolby ==

[[Image:Dolby.jpg]]

=== Dolby Digital ===

An encoding system that digitally compresses up to 5.1 discrete channels of audio (left front, center, right front, left surround, right surround, and Low Frequency Effect (LFE)) into a single bitstream, which can be recorded onto a DVD, HDTV broadcast, or other form of digital media. When RF-modulated, it was included on some laser discs, which requires an RF-demodulator before the signal can be decoded. Five channels are full-range; the .1 channel is a band-limited LFE track. A Dolby Digital processor (found in most new receivers, preamps, and some DVD players) can decode this signal back into the 5.1 separate channels. Most films since 1992's Batman Returns have been recorded in a 5.1 digital format, though a number of films before that had 6-channel analog tracks that have been remastered into 5.1.

=== Dolby EX ===

An enhancement to Dolby Digital that adds a surround back channel to 5.1 soundtracks. The sixth channel is matrixed from the left and right surround channels. Often referred to as 6.1. Sometimes referred to as 7.1 if the system uses two surround back speakers, even though both speakers reproduce the same signal. Software is backwards-compatible with 5.1 systems, but requires an EX or 6.1 processor to obtain additional benefit.

=== Dolby Pro Logic ===

An enhancement of the Dolby Surround decoding process. Pro Logic decoders derive left, center, right, and a mono surround channel from two-channel Dolby Surround encoded material via matrix techniques.

=== Dolby Pro Logic II ===

An enhanced version of Pro Logic. Adds improved decoding for two-channel, non-encoded soundtracks and music.

== DTS - Digital Theater Systems ==

[[Image:DTS.jpg]]

A digital sound recording format, originally developed for theatrical film soundtracks, starting with JurassicPark. Records 5.1 discrete channels of audio onto laser discs, CDs, and DVDs. Requires a player with DTS output connected to a DTS processor. A competitor of Dolby Digital and it's drivatives

== DVD - Digital Versatile Disc ==

DVD, also known as "Digital Versatile Disc" or "Digital Video Disc," is an optical disc storage media format. Its main uses are video and data storage. DVDs are of the same dimensions as compact discs (CDs) but store more than six times as much data.

Variations of the term DVD often describe the way data is stored on the discs: DVD-ROM (Read Only Memory), has data that can only be read and not written, DVD-R and DVD+R can record data only once and then function as a DVD-ROM. DVD-RW, DVD+RW and DVD-RAM can both record and erase data multiple times. The wavelength used by standard DVD lasers is 650 nm, and thus the light has a red color.

DVD-Video and DVD-Audio discs respectively refer to properly formatted and structured video and audio content. Other types of DVDs, including those with video content, may be referred to as DVD-Data discs.

As next generation High Definition more advanced optical formats such as Blu-ray Disc also use a disc identical in some aspects, the original DVD is occasionally given the retronym SD DVD (for standard definition).[2][3] However, the trademarked HD DVD discs have been discontinued since Blu-ray absorbed their market share.

== DVI: Digital Visual Interface. ==

A connection standard developed by Intel for connecting computers to digital monitors such as flat panels and DLP projectors. A consumer electronics version, not necessarily compatible with the PC version, is used as a connection standard for HDTV tuners and displays. Transmits an uncompressed digital signal to the display. The latter version uses HDCP copy protection to prevent unauthorized copying. See also HDMI.

== EIA - Electronics Industries Alliance ==

The Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA, until 1997 Electronic Industries Association) is a trade organization composed as an alliance of trade associations for electronics manufacturers in the United States. Those associations in turn govern sectors of EIA standards activity.

== EMI - Electromagnetic Interference ==

[[Glossary AV terms#RFI_or_EMI_-_Radio_frequency_or_Electromagnetic_interference|See 'RFI or EMI' below]]

== Graphic Equalizer ==

A type of equalizer with sliding controls that create a pattern representing a graph of the frequency-response changes. Raising sliders boosts the affected frequencies; lowering sliders cuts (attenuates) the affected frequencies.

== EMC - Electro Magnetic Compatibility ==

EMC stands for Electro Magnetic Compatibility, and describes the way electric or electronic apparatus behave (regarding Electro Magnetic aspects) in the presence of other equipment.

Electrical products (though not clearly specified which products) imported into the European Community must comply with the [[Electro magnetic compatibility|EMC directive]].

The EMC Technical Committee of the IEEE in the USA is committee is concerned with the measurement and instrumentation requirements in EMC standards and procedures and how they are interpreted.

== HDR: Hard-Drive Recorder. ==

A device that uses a computer hard drive to store compressed digital audio and video signals.

== HDMI: High-Definition Multimedia Interface ==

HDMI is the current state-of-the-art in delivering the highest quality video and audio through a single cable. HDMI can send high definition video (HDTV) as well as surround sound. Most recent HDTV television and mid- to upper-end home theatre receivers and DVD players offer HDMI connections.

HDMI is also compatible with most DVI connections for video so if you have, say a DVD player with DVI output and a plasma TV with HDMI input, you can use an HDMI-to-DVI cable to connect them, although you will need a separate connection for the audio, such as optical digital or coaxial digital. See article in "[[Tips and Articles|'''Tips and Articles''']]"

[[HDMI 1.4 with Ethernet]]

== HDTV: High Definition Television ==

The high-resolution subset of our DTV system. The FCC has no official definition for HDTV. The ATSC defines HDTV as a 16:9 image with twice the horizontal and vertical resolution of our existing system, accompanied by 5.1 channels of Dolby Digital audio. The CEA defines HDTV as an image with 720 progressive or 1080 interlaced active (top to bottom) scan lines. 1280:720p and 1920:1080i are typically accepted as high-definition scan rates.

== Home Theatre in a Box ==

A complete home theatre system in one box (or at least sold together as a package). Consists of five or more speakers, a subwoofer, and a receiver. May also include a DVD player.

== IEEE 1394: Firewire ==

A networking standard for PCs. Combined with 5C copy protection, is used as a two-way connection to transfer the MPEG-compressed digital bitstreams between consumer electronics items, including HDTV tuners and displays, D-VHS recorders, DVD players, and DBS receivers. Also called FireWire, iLink

== Interlace: ==

Process of alternating scan lines to create a complete image. In CRT displays, every second field/frame is scanned between the first field/frame. The first field represents the odd lines; the second field represents the even lines. The fields are aligned and timed so that, with a still image, the human eye blurs the two fields together and sees them as one. Interlace scanning allows only half the lines to be transmitted and presented at any given moment. A 1080i HD signal transmits and displays only 540 lines per 60th of a second. 480i NTSC transmits and displays only 240 lines per 60th of a second. Motion in the image can make the fields noticeable. Interlaced images have motion artifacts when two fields don't match to create the complete frame, often most noticeable in film-based material.

== iPod ==

iPod is the brand name of portable media players designed and marketed by Apple Inc. and launched on October 23, 2001. The product line-up includes the hard drive-based iPod Classic, the touchscreen iPod Touch, the video-capable iPod Nano, and the compact iPod Shuffle also the iPhone which operates as a media player plus several former models of iPod.

== LCD: ==

Liquid Crystal Display. A display that consists of two polarizing transparent panels and a liquid crystal surface sandwiched in between. Voltage is applied to certain areas, causing the crystal to turn dark. A light source behind the panel transmits through transparent crystals and is mostly blocked by dark crystals.

== Line ==

=== Line-in ===

Line in expects the kind of voltage level and impedance that line out provides. You can typically connect the line out connector of one device with the line in of another. However, doing this with a straight cable directly connected to both devices and having both devices on AC power, you may run into a ground loop; although some devices provide isolation by using an opto-isolator, which does not create a physical connection of the devices. A line input has a high impedance of around 10,000 ohms, as is often labeled as "Hi-Z" input (Z being the designator for impedance).

A line input level electrical signal typically has a voltage ranging from 0,3 to 2 Volts, while a microphone level signal is more often in the range from 5 to 50 mV (millivolts). Microphone sensitivities range from -60 dBu to -22 dBu referenced to 94 dB Soud Pressure Level (0 dB SPL = 2*10–5N/m2). The consumer line input level electrical signal typically has a voltage of 0,32 V (-7,8 dBu), whilst the professional line input level is typically 1,23 V (+4 dBu). For further information see Commonly used Voltage and Audio Levels.

=== Line-out ===

A line-out connection, often 6.3mm or 3.5mm mini jack, is designed to power either headphones or amplified speakers only and is not suitable for passive speakers. Electrical low level 1Vpp analog signal. For connection between audio sources to an amplifier or recording device.

The signal out of line out remains at a constant level, regardless of the current setting of the volume control. You can connect recording equipment to line out and record the signal, without having to listen to it through the device's speaker, and without the loudness of the recording changing if you change the volume control setting of the device while you are recording. The impedance is around 100 ohms, the voltage can reach 2 volts peak-to-peak with levels referenced to -10 dBV (300 mV) at 10k ohms, and frequency response of most modern equipment is advertised as 20Hz-20kHz (although other factors influence frequency response).[citation needed] This impedance level is much higher than the usual 4 or 8 ohms of a speaker, such that a speaker connected to line out essentially short circuits the op-amp. Even if the impedances would match, yielding the theoretical maximum power transfer of 50%, the power supplied through line out is not enough to drive a speaker.

== LFE : Low-Frequency Effects ==

LFE is the name of an audio track specifically intended for deep, low-pitched sounds ranging from 10-120 Hz. This track is normally sent to a speaker that is specially designed for low-pitched sounds called the subwoofer or Low Frequency Emitter. While LFE channels originated in Dolby Stereo 70 mm film prints, in the 1990s and 2000s they became commonplace in home theater systems used to reproduce film soundtracks for DVDs. LFE is sometimes expanded as Low Frequency Enhancement.

== Luminance: ==

The black and white (Y) portion of a composite, Y/C, or Y/Pb/Pr video signal. The luminance channel carries the detail of a video signal. The color channel is laid on top of the luminance signal when creating a picture. Having a separate luminance channel ensures compatibility with black-and-white televisions.

== NTSC: National Television System Committee (USA) ==

The broadcast standard for 525 line video and broadcasting in the USA also used in some South American counties and the Philippines

== PAL: Phase Alternating Line - EU ==

A European, UK and international broadcast standard for 625 line video and broadcasting. Higher resolution than NTSC.

== Plasma Screen: ==

Flat-panel display technology that ignites small pockets of gas to light phosphors.

== Progressive Scanning: ==

Each frame of a video image is scanned complete, from top to bottom, not interlaced. For example, 480p means that each image frame is made of 480 horizontal lines drawn vertically. Computer images are all progressively scanned. Requires more bandwidth (twice as much vertical information) and a faster horizontal scan frequency than interlaced images of the same resolution.

== Rack mount 19" ==

A 19-inch rack is a standardized (EIA 310-D, IEC 60297 and DIN 41494 SC48D) system for mounting electronic eqipment in a "stack", or rack, 19 inches (480 mm) wide. Equipment designed to be placed in a rack is typically described as rack-mount, a rack mounted system, a rack mount chassis, subrack, rack mountable, or occasionally, simply shelf. The slang expression for a subrack (generally 1U= 1.75 in = 44.45 mm height) is "pizza box" due to the similarity in size and shape.

Most server racks are sold in the 42U form: that is, a single rack capable of holding 42 1U pizza box servers, or any combination of 1U, 2U, 3U or other height units. Because of their origin as mounting systems for railroad signaling relays, they are still sometimes called relay racks, but the 19-inch rack format has remained a constant while the technology that is mounted within it has continued to develop. This standard rack arrangement is widely used throughout the telecommunication, computing, audio, entertainment and other industries.

Typically, a piece of equipment being installed has a front panel height 1/32-inch (.031") less than the allotted number of Us. Thus, a 1U rackmount computer is not 1.75-inches tall but is 1.719 inches(43.7 mm) tall. 2U would be 3.469 inches (88.1 mm) instead of 3.5-inches. This gap allows a bit of room above and below an installed piece of equipment so it may be removed without binding on the adjacent equipment.

== Receiver: ==

Any component that receives, or tunes, broadcast signals, be it NTSC, HDTV, DBS, or AM/FM radio. Typically refers to the single component that includes a preamp, surround processor, multichannel amplifier, and AM/FM tuner.

== RFI or EMI - Radio frequency or Electromagnetic interference ==

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) also called radio frequency interference (RFI) at higher frequencies is an unwanted disturbance that affects an electrical circuit due to either electromagnetic conduction or electromagnetic radiation emitted from an external source. The disturbance may interrupt, obstruct, or otherwise degrade or limit the effective performance of the circuit. The source may be any object, artificial or natural, that carries rapidly changing electrical currents, such as an electrical circuit, the Sun or the Northern Lights.

Interference can be induced from power cables that run parallel to an adjacent cable; the electromagnetic field set up around the power cable will induce a small current flow in the adjacent cable (which increases with closeness and parallel distance). This sort of low-frequency noise is usually referred to as EMI (Electro-Magnetic Interference). Other types of interference, at much higher frequencies, are radio waves, these are generated by broadcast stations, cellular (mobile) phones, relay antennas, amateur radio stations etc. This higher-frequency noise is usually referred to as RFI (Radio Frequency Interference).

== RGB: Red, Green, Blue. ==

RGB can refer to an unprocessed video signal or the color points of a display device. Together these three colors make up every color seen on a display device.

== RMS: Root Mean Square ==

RMS or the square root of the arithmetic mean (average) of the square's set of values. A reasonably accurate method of describing an amplifier's power output.

== RoHS ==

[[Image:RoHS.jpg]]

The '''[[Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive|Directive on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment]]''' 2002/95/EC commonly referred to as the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive or RoHS) was adopted in February 2003 by the European Union. The RoHS directive took effect on 1 July 2006, and is required to be enforced and become law in each member state. This directive restricts the use of six hazardous materials in the manufacture of various types of electronic and electrical equipment. It is closely linked with the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE) 2002/96/EC which sets collection, recycling and recovery targets for electrical goods and is part of a legislative initiative to solve the problem of huge amounts of toxic e-waste.

== SECAM: Sequential Couleur Avec Memoire ==

A French broadcasting standard for TV and Video

== Sensitivity: ==

A measurement (in dB) of the sound-pressure level over a specified frequency range created by a speaker driven by 1 watt (2.83V at 8 ohms) of power with a microphone placed 1 metre away.

== Sound reinforcement systems ==

A sound reinforcement system is the combination of microphones, signal processors, amplifiers, and loudspeakers that makes live or pre recorded sounds louder and may also distribute those sounds to a larger or more distant audience. [["Sound reinforcement in the classroom"]] is an article written about the application of sound reinforcement in schools

== Speakers ==

=== Driver ===

A loudspeaker, speaker, or speaker system is an electromechanical transducer that converts an electrical signal to sound. The term loudspeaker can refer to individual devices (otherwise known as drivers), or to complete systems consisting of an enclosure incorporating one or more drivers and additional electronic components. Loudspeakers, as with other electro-acoustic transducers, are the most variable elements in an audio system and are responsible for the greatest degree of audible differences between sound systems.

To reproduce a wide range of frequencies, most loudspeaker systems require more than one driver, particularly for high sound pressure level or high fidelity applications. Individual drivers are used to cover different frequency ranges. The drivers are named subwoofers, for very low frequencies; woofers, for low frequencies; mid-range speakers, for middle frequencies; tweeters, for high frequencies; and, also, the so-called supertweeters, which are basically tweeters optimized for higher frequencies than a normal tweeter.

=== Tweeter: ===

A speaker driver designed to reproduce high frequencies; usually those over approximately 5,000 to 10,000 Hz

=== Woofer: ===

A speaker driver designed to reproduce low frequencies.

=== Subwoofer: ===

A speaker designed to reproduce very low bass frequencies, usually those below about 80 Hz.

== Speaker Terminals ==

Speakers normally come equipped with one of two types of connectors - spring terminals or binding post type.

Spring terminals will only accept pin connectors or tinned base wire ends. Binding posts may accept many types of connection, including pin, banana plug and spade.

=== Spring Terminals ===

Spring terminals use spring-loaded connectors to create a compression connection around either pin connector or bare wire.

The spring terminal connection is limited by the small size of the actual connection surface, and the fact that the connection itself is not as tight as other options.

To help obtain a better connection, it is important to pull slightly the wires after these have been secured in the terminals. This will cause the teeth inside the connectors to 'bite' into the wire. [[Image:Springclip.jpg]]

Typical spring-loaded connectors found on low to mid-range equipment.

=== Binding Post Terminals ===

Normally used in pro or high power applications (over 150watts), binding posts create a connection by either accepting banana plugs, or by screwing down over spade connectors.

Binding posts make a significantly better connection to speaker wire than spring terminals do because the connections are more mechanically sound.

[[Image:BindingPost.jpg]]

== Speaker Wire ==

The wire that connects speakers to an amplifier. Usually a twin flexible wire with one "leg" identified by a stripe or a different colour so that the correct phase is maintained by connecting the Red speaker terminasl to the Red amplifier terminal etc

See also :[[Speaker wire gauge]]

== SPL: Sound-Pressure Level. ==

Sound pressure is the local pressure deviation from the ambient (average, or equilibrium) pressure caused by a sound wave. Sound pressure can be measured using a microphone

The effective sound pressure is the root mean square of the instantaneous sound pressure over a given interval of time (or space) measured in dB. The human ear is a sound pressure sensitive detector. It does not have a flat spectral response, so the sound pressure is often frequency weighted such that the measured level will match the perceived level. When weighted in this way the measurement is referred to as a sound level. The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) has defined several weighting schemes. A-weighting attempts to match the response of the human ear to pure tones, while C-weighting is used to measure peak sound levels.If the (unweighted) SPL is desired, many instruments allow a "flat" or unweighted measurement to be made

Power Output of Loudspeakers

Loudspeakers are often rated at their electrical power maximum limits, which does not indicate
the maximum acoustic output power available. A common definition of maximum acoustic output
is when the distortion value has reached 10 % (20 dB). Thus the test method is similar to
measuring loudspeaker distortion, except that the signal level is adjusted until the distortion is
10 %, and then the acoustic power level is measured with an SPL meter. This may be done at
997 Hz, or over a number of test frequencies spanning the audio range.

== Surround Sound 5.1-channel, 6.1-channel, and 7.1-channel ==

Most home theatre systems utilize 5.1-channel surround sound consisting of three speakers (or channels) across the front (left, centre and right), two speakers in the back (left and right) and a subwoofer. The subwoofer is specifically for low frequency sounds like the "boomy" bass sounds from an explosion in an action scene or a bass drum in music. Since the subwoofer doesn't carry the full range of frequencies as the rest of the speakers/channels, it's considered the "1" in 5.1. 6.1-channel surround sound adds a centre-rear speaker to the 5.1 speaker arrangement. 7.1 adds two side speakers to the 5.1 arrangement. Dolby Digital and DTS are the prevalent audio formats for surround sound.

== S-Video: (Super-Video) ==

A video transmission standard that uses a 4 pin mini-DIN connector to send video information on two signal wires called luminance(brightness, Y) and chrominance(colour, C). S-Video is also referred to as Y/C. A composite signal, typically found coming out of an RCA jack on the back of most VCRs has the Y and C information combined into one signal. The advantage of having luminance and chrominance separated is that a comb filter is not needed inside the video projector to separate the composite signal into the luminance and chrominance signals. A comb-filter can reduce the sharpness of your video image.

== UL: Underwriters Laboratory ==

[[Image:UL mark.png]]

Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL) is a U.S. privately owned and operated, independent, third party product safety testing and certification organization. Based in Northbrook, Illinois, UL develops standards and test procedures for products, materials, components, assemblies, tools and equipment, chiefly dealing with product safety.

== USB (Universal Serial Bus) ==

USB ports are on virtually every PC and Mac made in the past 5 years (and on many that are older than that). A USB connection is often used to connect digital camcorders, digital cameras, mp3 players and other portable A/V devices as well as more recent products like digital media servers to a home theatre system. There are a few types of USB connectors. The USB Type A connector plugs into the USB port on your computer. The USB Type B connector plugs into a peripheral device (such as a monitor or printer). Compact devices like cameras and mp3 players typically have smaller USB jacks called a mini USB. All USB cables have a Type A connector on one end (for the computer) and either a Type B or mini USB connector on the other end.

== VESA - Video Electronics Standards Association ==

VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association) is an international standards body for computer graphics founded in the late 1980s by NEC Home Electronics and eight other video display adapter manufacturers.

VESA's initial goal was to produce a standard for 800x600 SVGA resolution video displays. Since then VESA has issued a number of standards, mostly relating to the function of video peripherals in IBM PC compatible computers including dimensions for brackets used to fit monitors to walls, ceilings etc.

== VGA Cables and Connectors ==

VGA cables are the common analogue LCD/DLP projector and monitor cables used today, though their life may be considerably shortened by the onset of digital technology with DVI and HDMI cables in the near future. See article VGA cables and connectors for projectors and monitors. A VGA connector as it is commonly known (other names include RGB connector, D-sub 15, mini sub D15 and mini D15) is a three-row 15 pin DE-15 connector (ie a D sub-miniature connector with E size case and 15 pins) See also: [[VGA Connections|'''VGA connections''']] for pin-outs and connector details etc or [[VGA Cables for AV Cable Kits|'''VGA Cables for AV Cable Kits''']] for cable design considerations.

== WiFi: Wireless Fidelity - IEEE 802.11 ==

RJ11 Telephone handset connections also used for some PC Keyboards (MAC)

A standard specifies both a physical connector and how it is wired. Sometimes the same connector is used by different countries but wired in different ways.

For example, telephone cables in the UK typically have a BS 6312 (UK standard) plug at the wall end and a 6P4C or 6P2C modular connector at the telephone end: this latter may be wired as per the RJ11 standard (with pins 3 and 4), or it may be wired with pins 2 and 5, as a straight through cable from the BT plug (which uses pins 2 and 5 for the line, unlike RJ11, which uses pins 3 and 4). Thus cables are not in general compatible between different phones, as the phone base may have a socket with pins 2 and 5 (requiring a straight through cable), or have an RJ11 socket (requiring a crossover cable). When modular connectors are used, the "latch release" of the connector should be on the "ridge" side of flat phone wire in order to maintain polarity.

Essentially all one, two, and three line analog telephones made today (2009) are meant to plug into RJ11, RJ14, or RJ25 jacks, respectively.
RJ14 is similar, but for two lines, and RJ25 is for three lines. RJ61 is a similar registered jack for four lines. The telephone line cord and its plug are more often a true RJ11 with only two conductors.

Chinese New Year

WikiSysop: moved Chinese New Year 2010 to Chinese New Year

'''Chinese New Year''' (Xin Nian) officially lasts only a few days, but the New Year season lasts from the middle of the old years’ last month to the middle of the first month in the new Lunar year. Many factories stagger the holiday period to assist workers to get home - something like 200 Million workers return home during this period, celebrations in the villages are often at different times too. The time for return to work often depends on the state of the factory order book. So New Year is something of a variable feast!

In the Chinese system of reckoning time, years are named in cycles of sixty years. The name of the year repeats every sixty years, therefore... 2010 is the 11th year in the 60 year cycle and is called gengyin. It is the year 4707… year of the Tiger.

[[Image:TigerChinese.gif|thumb|left| Tiger]] To prepare for the New Year, people give their houses a really thorough cleaning to sweep away misfortune or bad luck and make room for incoming good fortune. [[Image:Spring-upsidedown.gif|thumb|right| An upside down character for "Spring"]]

Doors and windows are often painted and decorated with paper cutouts depicting happiness, wealth and longevity. Characters on red paper are placed upside down on doors, because the Chinese word for "upside down" – "dao" – is like the word for "arrive", so, if the character for "spring" is put up upside down, that means that ‘spring is arriving". The same practice applies to "good fortune" and other characters.

 New Year is mostly a time for family gatherings and visits. New clothes are worn and the lucky colour red is seen everywhere. [[Image:GongXi.gif|thumb|left| Gong Xi Fa Cai]] Among the foods that are eaten are jiaozi – dumplings boiled in water, literally meaning "sleep together - have sons". Fish is eaten as well as the Chinese word for "fish" sounds the same as that for "abundance".... seaweed called fat choi, a word sounding like "prosperity".... and Noodles symbolize a long life. The Cantonese spoken version sounds like "Gong Hey Fat Choi"

On New Year’s Eve Chinese peope leave all the lights on in the house all night(well at least one light). It's supposed to be very good luck – particularly for the electricity company.

In the morning, and the days following, children (unmarried adults too) and old folks get "hong bao" which are red envelopes with some new money inside - usually lucky values of 99 or 999. They may traditionally say Hong Bao Na Lai? "Where’s the red envelope?" until you offer one.

People also visit their neighbors to greet each other and give oranges as a token of good luck and good fortune.... as well as having orange trees at home and outside businesses.... and setting off fireworks and lots of firecrackers.

Interestingly the use of firecrackers on Chinese New Years Eve is supposed to be connected to a certain Li Tien. He had a neighbour named Chung Sou who frequently fell ill. He was believed to have been possessed by the evil spirits of the hills. Li Tien suggested detonating bamboo stems suspended from dozens of poles. So on New Year's eve, these stems were burnt, the scorching causing the bamboo stems to explode with a loud noise, scaring away the evils spirits. The creation of a din by burning bamboo stems or the beating of drums and now setting off modern fireworks and particularly firecrackers have become a ritual observed every Chinese New Year and forms part of most other Chinese festivals too to frighten away evils spirits.

So, Gong Xi Fa Cai - Congratulations - Make money! Shenti Jian Kang - Good Health and Xian Nian Hao or Xin Nian Kuai Le - HAPPY NEW YEAR!

IEC Appliance Classification

2010-03-31T01:02:11Z

WikiSysop: Protected "IEC Appliance Classification" ([edit=sysop] (indefinite) [move=sysop] (indefinite))

In the electrical appliance manufacturing industry, the following IEC protection classes are used to differentiate between the protective-earth connection requirements of devices. AV products most commonly use Class l and Class ll ie earthed and un-earthed equipment (with double insulation in the latter case.

=== Class 0 ===

Stranded copper wire - single insulated These appliances have no protective-earth connection and feature only a single level of insulation and were intended for use in dry areas. In most countries, the sale of Class 0 mains-voltage appliances is prohibited today,[citation needed] as a single fault could cause an electric shock or other dangerous occurrence. The International Electrotechnical Commission is in the process of removing provisions for Class 0 devices from its standards. It can be expected that the Class 0 concept will eventually disappear from the international market, in favour of Class II devices.[citation needed]

=== Class I ===

These appliances must have their chassis connected to electrical earth (US: ground) by an earth conductor (coloured yellow/green in most countries, green in the U.S., Canada and Japan). A fault in the appliance which causes a live conductor to contact the casing will cause a current to flow in the earth conductor. This current should trip either an overcurrent device (fuse or circuit breaker) or a residual current circuit breaker (ground fault circuit interrupter [GFCI]) which will cut off the supply of electricity to the appliance.

=== Class II ===

A Class II or double insulated electrical appliance is one which has been designed in such a way that it does not require a safety connection to electrical earth (US: ground). The basic requirement is that no single failure can result in dangerous voltage becoming exposed so that it might cause an electric shock and that this is achieved without relying on an earthed metal casing. This is usually achieved at least in part by having two layers of insulating material surrounding live parts or by using reinforced insulation. Typically used with figure 8 and clover leaf [[Power Cords|power cords]]

In Europe, a double insulated appliances must be labelled "Class II", "double insulated" or bear the double insulation symbol (a square inside another square). [[Image:Double Insulated Symbol.jpg|thumb|right]] See also double switching.

 
 
 

=== Class III ===

A Class III appliance is designed to be supplied from a SELV (Separated or Safety Extra-Low Voltage) power source. The voltage from a SELV supply is low enough that under normal conditions a person can safely come into contact with it without risk of electrical shock. The extra safety features built into Class I and Class II appliances are therefore not required.

Solder

WikiSysop: Protected "Solder" ([edit=sysop] (indefinite) [move=sysop] (indefinite))

'''Solder''' is a fusible metal alloy with a melting point or melting range of 90 to 450 °C (200 to 840 °F), used in soldering where it is melted to join metallic surfaces. It is especially useful in electronics and plumbing. Alloys that melt between 180 and 190 °C are the most commonly used.

On July 1, 2006 the European Union Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE) and Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive (RoHS) came into effect prohibiting the intentional addition of lead to most consumer electronics produced in the EU. California recently adopted a RoHS law and China has a version as well. Manufacturers in the U.S. may receive tax benefits by reducing the use of lead-based solder.

Lead-free solders in commercial use may contain tin, copper, silver, bismuth, indium, zinc, antimony, and traces of other metals. Most lead-free replacements for conventional Sn60/Pb40 and Sn63/Pb37 solder have melting points from 5–20 °C higher, though solders with much lower melting points are available.

PVC

2010-03-27T02:19:58Z

WikiSysop: Protected "PVC" ([edit=sysop] (indefinite) [move=sysop] (indefinite))

'''Polyvinyl chloride''' is the third most widely produced plastic, after polyethylene and polypropylene. Over 50% of PVC manufactured is used in construction, because it is cheap, durable, and easy to assemble. PVC production is expected to exceed 40 million tons by 2016.

 PVC can be made softer and more flexible by the addition of plasticizers, the most widely used being phthalates. In this form, it is used in clothing and upholstery, and to make flexible hoses and tubing, flooring, to roofing membranes, and electrical cable insulation. It is also commonly used in figurines and in inflatable products such as waterbeds, pool toys, and inflatable structures.

'''Applications'''

PVC's intrinsic properties make it suitable for a wide variety of applications. It is biologically and chemically resistant, making it the plastic of choice for most household sewerage pipes and other pipe applications where corrosion would limit the use of metal. With the addition of impact modifiers and stabilizers, it becomes a popular material for window and door frames. By adding plasticizers, it can become flexible enough to be used in cabling applications as a wire insulator.

'''Electric wires'''

PVC is commonly used as the insulation on electric wires and sheaths for cables; the plastic used for this purpose needs to be plasticized. In a fire, PVC-coated wires can form HCl fumes; the chlorine serves to scavenge free radicals and is the source of the material's fire retardance. While HCl fumes can also pose a health hazard in their own right, HCl dissolves in moisture and breaks down onto surfaces, particularly in areas where the air is cool enough to breathe, and is not available for inhalation.

Frequently in applications where smoke is a major hazard (notably in tunnels and communal areas) PVC-free cable insulation is preferred, such as low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) insulation.

For high performance cables polyethylene is more commonly used for insulation and also for the outer sheath on many communication cables due to it's improved water resistance but it is a fire hazard for indoor cables where pvc or LSOH sheaths are used

'''Polyethylene''' or '''polythene''' (IUPAC name polyethene or poly(methylene)) is the most widely used plastic, with an annual production of approximately 80 million metric tons. Its primary use is within packaging (notably the plastic shopping bag).

Polyethylene is classified into several different categories based mostly on its density and branching. The mechanical properties of PE depend significantly on variables such as the extent and type of branching, the crystal structure and the molecular weight.

Polyethylene as a wire insulation material comes in many forms

Generic Polyethylene offers low cost, excellent electrical properties, high flammability, stiffer than vinyl.

Cross linked (XLPE) offers higher voltage capabilities

Irradiated Polyethylene offers moderate cost, excellent electrical, physical, and chemical properties, flame retardant, resistant to environmental stress

For low capacitance cables, particularly video cables a dielectric material as foamy and soft as possible; solid polyethylene is not good because its dielectric constant is relatively high and would keep capacitance up. Inclusion of air in the dielectric is ideal, foam low density polyethylene is the answer, because it combines the mechanical stability of PE with the best dielectric: air. This is the material for choice for these higher performance AV cables (other more expensive dieltrics such as TEF can also be used)

WikiSysop: Protected "Melamine" ([edit=sysop] (indefinite) [move=sysop] (indefinite))

Melamine is combined with formaldehyde to produce melamine resin, a very durable thermosetting plastic used in Formica, and melamine foam, a polymeric cleaning product. The end products include countertops, dry erase/wipe boards, fabrics, glues, housewares and flame retardants. Melamine is one of the major components in Pigment Yellow 150, a colorant in inks and plastics.

'''Cabinet and furniture making'''

Melamine resin often is used to saturate decorative papers that are directly laminated onto particle board providing wood and other effects also with white paper for (non-magnetic) dry wipe boards; the resulting panel is often called melamine and commonly used in ready-to-assemble furniture and inexpensive kitchen cabinets. Melamine is available in different sizes and thicknesses, as well as a large number of colors and patterns. The sheets are heavy and difficult to work with, as the resin is prone to chipping when being cut with conventional table saws.[3]

MDF

WikiSysop: Protected "MDF" ([edit=sysop] (indefinite) [move=sysop] (indefinite))

'''Medium-density fibreboard''' (MDF) is an engineered wood product formed by breaking down hardwood or softwood residuals into wood fibres, often in a defibrator, combining it with wax and a resin binder, and forming panels by applying high temperature and pressure.[1] MDF is denser than plywood.

It is made up of separated fibers, (not wood veneers) but can be used as a building material similar in application to plywood. It is much more dense than normal particle board.

The name derives from the distinction in densities of fiberboard. Large-scale production of MDF began in the 1980s

MDF is often used in school projects because of its flexibility. It is also often used in loudspeaker enclosures, due to its increased weight and rigidity over normal plywood.

'''Safety aspects of MDF'''

When MDF is cut, a large quantity of dust particles is released into the air. It is important that a respirator be worn and the wood be cut in a controlled and ventilated environment. It is a good practice to seal the exposed edges to limit the emissions from the binders contained in this material.

Formaldehyde resins are commonly used to bind MDF together, and testing has consistently revealed that MDF products emit urea formaldehyde and other volatile organic compounds that pose health risks at sufficient concentrations, for at least several months after manufacture. Urea formaldehyde is always being slowly released from the surface of MDF. When painting it is good idea to coat the whole of the product in order to seal in the urea formaldehyde. Wax and oil finishes may be used as finishes but they are less effective at sealing in the urea formaldehyde.

Whether these chronic emissions of formaldehyde reach harmful levels in real-world environments is not yet fully determined. The primary concern is for the industries using formaldehyde. As far back as 1987 the U.S. EPA classified it as a probable human carcinogen and after more studies the WHO International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), in 1995, also classified it as a probable human carcinogen. Further information and evaluation of all known data led the IARC to reclassify formaldehyde as a known human carcinogen [6] associated with nasal sinus cancer and nasopharyngeal cancer, and possibly with leukemia in June 2004

'''Benefits of MDF:'''

*Is an excellent substrate for veneers.
*Is becoming an environmentally friendly product.
*Some varieties are less expensive than many natural woods
*Isotropic (its properties are the same in all directions as a result of no grain), so no tendency to split
*Consistent in strength and size
*Flexible. Can be used for curved walls or surfaces.
*Shapes well.

'''Drawbacks of MDF:'''

*Denser than plywood or chipboard (the resins are heavy)
*Swells and breaks when waterlogged
*May warp or expand if not sealed
*Contains urea-formaldehyde which may cause eye and lung irritation when cutting and sanding
*Dulls blades more quickly than many woods
*Though it does not have a grain in the plane of the board, it does have one into the board. Screwing into the edge of a board will generally cause it to split in a fashion similar to delaminating.
*Subject to significant shrinkage in low humidity environments.
*Trim (i.e. baseboards) comes pre-primed but this is insufficient for fine finish painting. Painting with latex paints is difficult due to rapid water absorption. Most finishes appear uneven and nail holes tend to pucker a bit.

Low Smoke Zero Halogen

WikiSysop: Protected "Low Smoke Zero Halogen" ([edit=sysop] (indefinite) [move=sysop] (indefinite))

'''Low smoke zero halogen''' or low smoke free of halogen ('''LSZH''' or '''LSOH''' or '''LS0H''' or '''LSFH''') is a material classification typically used for cable sheath/jacketing in the wire and cable industry. LSZH cable sheath/jacketing is composed of thermoplastic or thermoset compounds that emit limited smoke and no halogens when exposed to high sources of heat (ie. flame).

Most network cables are insulated with polyethylene, PVC or Thermoplastic Urethane (TPU) . In fires, a halogen-containing plastic material releases hydrogen chloride, a poisonous gas, which forms hydrochloric acid when it comes in contact with water which can also damage other electrical equipment. Designated Halogen-free cables, on the other hand, does not produce a dangerous gas/acid combination or toxic smoke when exposed to a flame.

Low smoke zero halogen cable reduces the amount of toxic and corrosive gases emitted during combustion. These types of materials are typically used in poorly ventilated areas such as aircrafts or rail cars. Low smoke zero halogen is becoming very popular and in some cases a requirement in instances where the protection of people and equipment from toxic and corrosive gasses is critical.
