Transformer (XFMR)
Does the permanent magnet change polarity?
NO
With _________ _________ speakers impedance matching is critical
direct wired
Impedance is made up of the vector sum of which 2 values?
Resistance and Reactance
This circuit has contact closure devices & uses EOL resistors to determine circuit condition
IDC - Initiating Device Circuit
In a 70V paging system, which type of transformer is used at each speaker to make the signal appropriate for a low impedance load?
Step down XFMR
two 8 ohm speakers wired in parallel gives a total impendence of what?
4 ohms (parallel divides value/quantity)
The standard frequency Amps and Speakers are rated at is:
1KHz
Impedance changes with a change in?
Frequency
