Electricalnetwork frequency ENF analysis is a forensic science technique for validating audio recording s by comparing frequency changes in background mains hum in the recording with long term high precision historical records of mains frequency changes from a database.

Unreferenced date December 2009 If an electricalnetwork electric circuit has a well defined output terminal, the circuit connected to this terminal or its input impedance is the load . The term load may also refer to the Electric power power consumed by a circuit that topic is not discussed here. Load affects the performance of circuits that output volt ages or Current electricity current s, such as sensor s, voltage source s, and amplifier s. Mains electricity Mains Domestic AC power plugs and sockets power outlet s provide an easy example they supply power at constant voltage, with electrical appliance s connected to the power circuit collectively making up the load. When a high power appliance switches on, it dramatically reduces the load Electrical impedance impedance . If the load impedance is not very much higher than the power supply impedance, the voltage will drop. In a domestic environment, switching on a heating appliance may cause incandescent light s to dim noticeably. A more technical approach Two sidenotes on generality, for advanced readers This discussion assumes circuits are Linear circuit linear . It uses simple electrical resistance resistances , but can be readily generalized to impedance s for Alternating current AC analysis . When discussing the effect of load on a circuit, it is helpful to disregard the circuit s actual design and consider only the Th venin equivalent .

Electrical resonance occurs in an electricalnetwork electric circuit at a particular Resonance resonance frequency where the imaginary parts of circuit element Electrical impedance impedances or admittance s cancel each other. In some circuits this happens when the impedance between the input and output of the circuit is almost zero and the transfer function is close to one. Resonant circuits exhibit ringing and can generate higher voltages and currents than are fed into them. They are widely used in wireless radio transmission for both transmission and reception. Resonance in LC circuits Resonance of a circuit involving capacitors and inductors occurs because the collapsing magnetic field of the inductor generates an electric current in its windings that charges the capacitor, and then the discharging capacitor provides an electric current that builds the magnetic field in the inductor. This process is repeated continually. An analogy is a mechanical pendulum . At resonance, the series Electrical impedance impedance of the two elements is at a minimum and the parallel impedance is at maximum. Resonance is used for tuned filter tuning and filtering, because it occurs at a particular frequency for given values of inductance and capacitance . It can be detrimental to the operation of telecommunications communications circuits by causing unwanted sustained and transient oscillations that may cause noise , signal distortion , and damage to circuit elements. Parallel resonance or near to resonance circuits can be used to prevent the waste of electrical energy, which would otherwise occur while the inductor built its field or the capacitor charged and discharged. As an example, asynchronous motors waste inductive current while synchronous ones waste capacitive current. The use of the two types in parallel makes the inductor feed the capacitor, and vice versa , maintaining the same resonant current in the circuit, and converting all the current into useful work. Since the inductive ... more details
