What’s Shielded Metal Arc Welding?

Stick welding uses a two-piece electrode with a metal alloy core and silicon-based flux to create strong welds. Moisture and incorrect heat settings cause porosity, while spatter indicates excessive heat. Proper handling and direction of the electrode ensure a structurally sound weld. Shielded metal arc welding, also known as stick welding, uses a two-piece electrode […]

What’s a shielded cable?

Shielded cable is an electrical cable with one or more conductive shields made of metallic foil or woven wire to minimize electromagnetic interference. Power cords can be a major source of EMI, and the degree of shielding required depends on the ambient EMI in a given environment. The two most commonly used types of shielding […]

What’s a shielded cable?

Shielded wire is covered in a protective sheath to reduce electromagnetic interference. It can be used anywhere wiring overlaps and is available in various types. Shielding can be added to existing wiring with kits. It is important to select a product that provides adequate shielding. A shielded wire is wire that has been covered in […]

What’s a shielded subnet?

A shielded subnet separates public and private functions in a network, with a third portion accessible through a demilitarized zone. Public areas are fully accessible while private information is not. This is a security feature that reduces the risk of external attacks on the intranet. A shielded subnet is a method of security used in […]
