Resistance Temperature A device used to sense temperature that varies in resistance as
Detector (RTD) temperature changes.
Resistor A device manufactured to have a specific amount of resistance
or to be variable within a specific range of resistance. A rheostat
is a type of two-lead variable resistor and a potentiometer is a
type of three-lead variable resistor.
Fixed Value Resistor Rheostat Potentiometer
Root-mean-square or The effective value of a current or voltage. Root-mean-square is
RMS Value
descriptive of the mathematical process used to calculate the
effective value of a periodic current or voltage.
Rotor The rotating element in the magnetic circuit of a rotating
machine such as a motor.
Safety Switch A type of enclosed switch that may also include provisions for
fuses. Single-throw safety switches are used to provide a means
for disconnecting power. Double-throw switches are used to
transfer loads from one power source to another or to transfer
power from one load to another.
