Distortion (individual) - Ratio between the rms value of an nth order harmonic and the rms value of the fundamental.
Thermistor - A temperature sensitive resistor, usually made from specially processed oxides.
Primary Battery - A battery which is not intended to be recharged and is discarded when the battery has delivered all of its electrical energy.
RMS Voltage - The range of usable voltage + or - 170 VAC.
Reliability - Probability that a device will accomplish a required function under given conditions over a given period of time. Rms value of AC current with harmonics The rms value Yrms of a non-sinusoidal alternating current may be determined on the basis of the individual harmonic currents - where Y is the rms value of the fundamental.
Ambient Humidity - The average humidity of the surroundings.
Short-Circuit Current (SCC) - The initial value of the current obtained from a battery in a circuit of negligible resistance.
