Reliable power supply and grounding are paramount to the operation of appliances, computers, local area networks, peripheral devices, connect the various cables (e.g., computer, printer, TV-VCR, and in other cases). The use of protection devices, in particular, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) efficiently only in the presence of good grounding. The practical implementation of a reliable ground as relevant (from the point of view of protection, long-term use and safety) that is no less important than, say, the life and health of a person. Because these concepts are interrelated. How to securely ground the equipment — the theme of my article.

HARPOON FORK FROM THE DINING ROOM…
Your dream has come true – and here you are on the sea. Dazzling sunshine, with the quiet rustle of pebbles rolled on the coastal waves, the salty sea breeze caress your hair. Mask, snorkel and fins – your eyes open a wonderful world of underwater Kingdom. You slowly float along the ridge of huge stones and notice the impressive size of the fish. What a shame that you have not taken a vacation speargun. That would be a mining…
IMPROVEMENT HAND TOOLS IMPACT
When conducting different kinds of work often have to use hand tool percussion: chisel, punch, jumper and others. To eliminate the negative impact response of the impact on a hard work surface, it seems appropriate to use anti-vibration device (Fig. 1, 2, 3) to which the thread mate replaceable shock elements. The figures shown docked replaceable chisel.
HOW TO MAKE GROUNDING
My story will consist of three parts.
1 part. Grounding system (General information, terms and definitions).
Part 2. Traditional methods of construction of grounding devices (description, calculation, installation).
Part 3. Modern methods of construction of grounding devices (description, calculation, installation).
WITHOUT A BOTTLE WILL NOT DO
As you know, strawberry – plant capricious. Strawberry beds require frequent weeding, trimming the mustache, and when the berries begin to ripen, experienced growers pour on the ground sawdust to protect delicate berries from contact with the ground. Muscovite M. Listratova for several years, planted seedlings in cut-off top of plastic bottles filled with fertilized earthen mixture and partially recessed in the ground. To care for plants is not an example easier, and full of berries from this patch it is possible to collect much more than usual.
LASER ASSISTANT
As a longtime reader of Your magazine, a lot of interesting in this read. Finally, I decided to write myself: maybe useful to someone my experience of construction.
Its essence is as follows. As-needed in private households to build the shed, and quite a large size. It is clear that the basis of almost every built — the Foundation. And the problem was exactly with the removal of the corners of the Foundation and its entire top in one and the same “zero” level. This depends on the strength and durability, especially in brickwork.
ECONOMICAL NIGHT LIGHT
In recent years, developers of electronic equipment for ham radio became available to the newest element base of leading foreign and domestic manufacturers, allowing you to create new versions of familiar domestic devices, significantly increasing their performance.
The LEDs are almost all primary colors with a high light output allow to create elegant compact design home night light without using incandescent lamps. The intensity of the luminous flux generated by the described device, it is sufficient that, at least, not straining your eyes to read newspaper text at a distance of two to three meters from the source.
DRY AND “NEPROLIVAJKU”
Once ceased to overlap the water in the cistern of the toilet. It turned out that the plastic float is stuck in the down position and through the unsealed hole for the end of the lever is filled with water.
To release the float and pour from it the bulk of the water work, of course, was not. But some water still remained, and to retrieve it failed — because the upper end with a hole for the float has a conical shape (like old inkwells-“neprolivaek”). Surfaced in memory the Council published once in the journal “modelist-Konstruktor” to drill into the top edge of the float hole through it to drain the water and again to fix it in any way.
THE CURB-CUTTER
Such a cutter is to produce, as he started pasting of walls by wall-paper during the repair of the apartment. The fact that now, along with beautiful Wallpapers offers a variety of framing and borders in the form of rolls of paper tapes coated with these ornaments. And often the width of these tapes does not correspond to your planned finish. Sause with scissors? It turns out long and not always smooth.
THE FLOAT IN THE TANK
Usually in the cistern of the toilet in an actuator of a shutoff valve on the lever set hollow plastic float. If its integrity is violated, it fills with water and stops working. As a consequence, continuous noise of flowing water, condensed moisture on the tank, dampness and mold.
