Losses in electrical systems Losses in electrical systems In an electrical or electronic circuit or power system, losses can be classified into two categories: technical and non-technical losses. The term technical losses refers to part of the energy in play dissipates by unwanted effects, including energy lost by unwanted heating of resistive components (electricity is also used for the intention of heating, which is not a loss), the effect of parasitic elements (resistance, capacitance, and inductance), skin effect, losses in the windings and cores of transformers due to resistive heating and magnetic losses caused by eddy currents, hysteresis, unwanted radiation, dielectric loss, corona discharge,
Conscience microseconds after the electrical discharge known as the 'readiness potential.' Jacques Pitrat claims that some kind of artificial conscience is beneficial in artificial intelligence systems to improve their long-term performance and direct their introspective processing. The word "conscience" derives etymologically from the Latin "conscientia", meaning "privity of knowledge" or "with-knowledge". The English word implies internal awareness of a moral standard in the mind concerning the quality of one's motives, as well as a consciousness of our own actions. Thus "conscience" considered philosophically may be first, and perhaps most commonly, a largely unexamined "gut feeling" or "vague sense of guilt" about
