peer agreement (net): -1(un) potentiomètre Explanation: A potentiometer (also known as a pot or potmeter) is defined as a 3 terminal variable resistor in which the resistance is manually varied to control the flow of electric current. A potentiometer acts as an adjustable voltage divider. Une abbreviation. Meme en francais on trouve une abbreviation : Un potentiomètre (appelé familièrement potard) est un type de résistance variable à trois bornes, dont une est reliée à un curseur se déplaçant sur une piste .. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 days 12 hrs (2020-12-31 08:08:47 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Bonne Annee a tous et a toute-desole pas de clavier Azerty sous la main -:) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 days 13 hrs (2020-12-31 08:10:31 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Install the cold lead “pot” so that it extends about 2 in (5 cm) above the bottom of the junction box.->So it is electrical engineering, donc potentiometer.

I don't see a use for electrical tape in electronics and in the little text we have it is clearly metionned->"...taping over tails and pot with electrical tape...." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 days 22 hrs (2020-12-31 17:48:23 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Hell, I can t edit, there is an error in the text above "So to avoid confusion if the asker is going to read this at one point in the future - there is Potentiometer as electrical component (abbrev. Pot)... a Potentiometer as a measuring instrument but this is completely different. I don't see a use for electrical tape in electronics and in the little text we have it is clearly metionned->"...taping over tails and pot with electrical tape...."-sorry -just wanted to be clear for the asker. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 days 7 hrs (2021-01-01 02:29:48 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- @Tony @Asker Mystere résolu, au moins en ce qui me concerne. Vous connaissez bien tous les interrupteurs avec potentiomètre pour lampes ou éclairages quelconques et la présence du potentiomètre permet non seulement d'allumer la lumière mais aussi d'en régler la puissance grâce à la présence d'un potentiomètre justement. En anglais on les appelle "Pot lamps " Suivez le lien ci-bas https://www.amazon.ca/INCARLED-Dimmable-Recessed-Downlight-J... INCARLED 4Inch LED Recessed Slim Pot Light with Junction Box, Dimmable 9W 750LM (12pack, Warm White/3000K)-Pot light is dimmable thanks to the presence of the "POT"-potentiometre. Tony, man you are an engineer, what is the device that is used in an electrical circuit? And they re talking about electrical tape-all fits in place. I hate to contradict you my friend, just my two cents.. -:) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 days 16 hrs (2021-01-01 11:11:54 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- What is another word for potentiometer?
