6.1.1. This section of the Rules applies to installations of electric lighting of buildings, premises and structures for outdoor lighting of cities, towns and rural settlements, territories of enterprises and institutions, installations for long-term health-improving ultraviolet irradiation, installations of illuminated advertising, light signs and illumination installations.

6.1.2. Electric lighting of special installations (residential and public buildings, entertainment enterprises, clubs, sports facilities, explosive and fire hazardous areas), in addition to the requirements of this section, must also meet the requirements of the relevant chapters of Sec. 7.

6.1.3. Supply lighting network - a network from a switchgear of a substation or a branch from overhead power lines to VU, ASU, MSB.

6.1.4. Distribution network - a network from VU, ASU, MSB to distribution points, shields and outdoor lighting power points.

6.1.5. Group network - a network from shields to lamps, socket outlets and other electrical receivers.

6.1.6. Outdoor lighting power point - an electrical switchgear for connecting a group network of outdoor lighting to a power source.

6.1.7. Night mode phase - a phase of the supply or distribution network of outdoor lighting that is not turned off at night.

6.1.8. Cascade outdoor lighting control system - a system that sequentially turns on (turns off) sections of a group network of outdoor lighting.

6.1.9. Lamp charging wires - wires laid inside the lamp from the terminals or plug connectors installed in it for connecting to the network (for a lamp that does not have contact clips or plug connector inside, - wires or cables from the place where the lamp is connected to the network) to those installed in the lamp devices and lamp sockets.

A New Way to Control and Manipulate Optical Signals 05.05.2024

The modern world of science and technology is developing rapidly, and every day new methods and technologies appear that open up new prospects for us in various fields. One such innovation is the development by German scientists of a new way to control optical signals, which could lead to significant progress in the field of photonics. Recent research has allowed German scientists to create a tunable waveplate inside a fused silica waveguide. This method, based on the use of a liquid crystal layer, allows one to effectively change the polarization of light passing through a waveguide. This technological breakthrough opens up new prospects for the development of compact and efficient photonic devices capable of processing large volumes of data. The electro-optical control of polarization provided by the new method could provide the basis for a new class of integrated photonic devices. This opens up great opportunities for ... >>

Primium Seneca keyboard 05.05.2024

Keyboards are an integral part of our daily computer work. However, one of the main problems that users face is noise, especially in the case of premium models. But with the new Seneca keyboard from Norbauer & Co, that may change. Seneca is not just a keyboard, it is the result of five years of development work to create the ideal device. Every aspect of this keyboard, from acoustic properties to mechanical characteristics, has been carefully considered and balanced. One of the key features of Seneca is its silent stabilizers, which solve the noise problem common to many keyboards. In addition, the keyboard supports various key widths, making it convenient for any user. Although Seneca is not yet available for purchase, it is scheduled for release in late summer. Norbauer & Co's Seneca represents new standards in keyboard design. Her ... >>

The world's tallest astronomical observatory opened 04.05.2024

Exploring space and its mysteries is a task that attracts the attention of astronomers from all over the world. In the fresh air of the high mountains, far from city light pollution, the stars and planets reveal their secrets with greater clarity. A new page is opening in the history of astronomy with the opening of the world's highest astronomical observatory - the Atacama Observatory of the University of Tokyo. The Atacama Observatory, located at an altitude of 5640 meters above sea level, opens up new opportunities for astronomers in the study of space. This site has become the highest location for a ground-based telescope, providing researchers with a unique tool for studying infrared waves in the Universe. Although the high altitude location provides clearer skies and less interference from the atmosphere, building an observatory on a high mountain poses enormous difficulties and challenges. However, despite the difficulties, the new observatory opens up broad research prospects for astronomers. ... >>

Superconducting DNA wires 28.01.2021

Physicists have figured out how to use DNA origami technology to produce superconducting nanowires of arbitrary shape and length. Due to this, it is possible that they can be used for the production of nanoelectronics.

In recent years, scientists have identified many organic compounds that could replace silicon and other semiconductors in computer chips. Many of these compounds are already used in the development of LED and liquid crystal displays, sensors and various medical and scientific devices.

At the same time, it turned out to be much more difficult to synthesize organic molecules that could conduct current and, due to this, replace metals. For example, scientists found one such substance only three years ago. It is an integrin protein that coats the surface of human cells. It turned out that its fragments can conduct current almost without loss.

Researchers from Israel and the US have found that DNA molecules with metal nanoparticles attached to them can be used as scaffolds for complex composite superconductors. They wanted to combine a similar technology with DNA origami. This is the name of the method by which single strands of DNA can be used to assemble complex three-dimensional structures that can move, interact with environmental objects and solve various practical problems.

Scientists have suggested that based on DNA origami, it is possible to create a technology thanks to which it will be possible to assemble nanowires of arbitrary shape, length and size. To do this, Bar-Ilan University physicist Lior Shani and his colleagues assembled several nanowires about 200 nm long and 25 nm thick. The scientists attached this structure to the surface of a special nanostructure, which consisted of a silicon substrate and two superconducting electrodes, and then studied the physical properties of the nanowire.

The discovery can be applied to the use of superconductors in nanoelectronics and to the development of new scientific and industrial devices, including ultrasensitive magnetic field sensors, quantum signal amplifiers and various sensors.
