    Db25 Panel Mount

    For thin panels I use a Greenlee DB25 punch that is basically intended for external fitting. For thicker one's I machine the panel and still mount on the outside on my panels, saves problems with mating shells. M.

    Db25 Panel Mount

    I don't really understand the question, whether mounting the DB25 on the outside, (the obvious choice) or on the inside how is the wire connection a problem? I can see a conn mounted on the inside being a problem for the mating connector, but this goes to my first indication of mounting. M.

    Electronics Circuit Symbols help

    There are many uses, one common one is they are used in building burglar alarms (usually held closed) to detect window/door opening etc. Another is in rotary switches etc, and/or any area where a hermetically sealed switch is required. and many more. M.

    Three pins socket

    Appears to be a UK style socket, IIRC (3) is live (1) is neutral and (2) is Earth. You can confirm this by taking a voltage reading between 3 and the other 2, for 240v. (or whatever voltage it is in India). M.

    need a c drive repair ebook

    AC drive covers a wide scope if solid state, then the this would be covered in general by VFD's, Variable frequency Drive. For repair, you would need a specific model as although they are all the same in principle, they vary greatly in actual design. For design, then this would be covered by...

    need a c drive repair ebook

    To me an AC drive is a VFD or AC spindle drive for a 3ph induction motor 1ph or 3ph supply, 1ph output are rare and do not work that well for 1ph ind motors. Is this a request for general technical information of repair of a specific model. M.

    Working with an RC timer and a transitor to power a high current device

    If your intention is to get into Pic and use it to control high(er) current devices I suggest you look at Logic level Mosfets, these do not load up the Micro like a bi-polar transistor does and also in many cases has a much lower on resistance, they are similar 3 terminal devices and cost no...

    A/C adapter for DC blower fan

    AC adaptors that are old style linear are hard to find now, just pick up a small 120v/12v secondary transformer and a rectifier bridge and you are away. M.

    A/C adapter for DC blower fan

    A linear supply is unregulated the one you show is SMPS, Switch mode. Linear is usually a simple transformer, bridge and capacitor. Better suited to motor function. M.

    A/C adapter for DC blower fan

    I suspect it may be inrush shutting the SMPS supply down? I would obtain a linear supply for it, confirm it by testing on an automotive battery. M.

    Wind powered generator using radiator fan?

    Fan motors are generally P.M. brushed? If it it is the rare case where you have a wound field, all you need to do is carefully open up the motor and separate the field coils, and feed them with DC. Try shorting the leads together and see if you get braking effect when spun by hand. The only...

    need help finding ac/dc adapter

    I agree, Jameco is pretty good, the one thing you have to watch is the type of end connector and the polarity, Usually +ve is the centre, but some are oddball and use centre for -ve. M.
