 Sixth International Conference on Substorms
If the electric circuit has no ionospheric load, then the current of the MHD generator feeds the MHD compressor; if, however, such a load appears, then the compressor is fed only by the portion of the current that is not used by the ionosphere.
On the whole, such a scheme makes it possible not only to reconcile magnetospheric and ionospheric currents but also to explain the appearance of the loading and unloading substorm phases.
In addition to the above-mentioned current, which circulates between the generator and compressor, there exists also the dawn-dusk external current.

 Solar Energy Technologies Program: Electrical Contacts
Electrical contacts are essential to a photovoltaic (PV) cell because they bridge the connection between the semiconductor material and the external electrical load, such as a light bulb.
Another challenge in cell design is to minimize the electrical resistance losses when applying grid contacts to the solar cell material.
These losses are related to the solar cell material's property of opposing the flow of an electric current, which results in heating the material.

 Electric motor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Closely related in design to three-phase AC synchronous motors are stepper motors, where an internal rotor containing permanent magnets or a large iron core with salient poles is controlled by a set of external magnets that are switched electronically.
DC motor speed generally depends on a combination of the voltage and current flowing in the motor coils and the motor load or braking torque.
The speed of the motor is proportional to the voltage, and the torque is proportional to the current.

 Electric motor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A linear motor is essentially an electric motor that has been "unrolled" so that instead of producing a torque (rotation), it produces a linear force along its length by setting up a traveling electromagnetic field.
Closely related in design to three-phase AC synchronous motors are stepper motors, where an internal rotor containing permanent magnets or a large iron core with salient poles is controlled by a set of external magnets that are switched electronically.
All induction motors are characterized by the fact that when no load is applied to the motor, the rotor rotates at a slightly slower rate than the mains frequency (or an integer submultiple of the mains frequency).
