Conduction is… Is the electrical function performed by any component that can transmit electric current from one part of a circuit to another.
12
A printed circuit is… Is an electric circuit printed on a solid support called a circuit board.
13
Insulation is … Is the electrical function performed by any component that prevents an electric current from flowing.
14
Protection is … Is the electrical function performed by any component that can automatically cut current flow in the event of a power surge. Example: Fuses
