Power and control cable
Multiple conductor electrical cable, which can be, used for electrical applications such as machines and tools.

Power buggy
Cart with a wheelbarrow type bin, with a rocker attachment allowing steep dumping for stiff mixes, which transports wet concrete over a job site. These carts can be either diesel or gasoline powered and vary in size with the ability to carry from nine to twelve cubic feet of concrete.

Power center
A shopping center with few tenants, most of them anchor tenants. Generally, a power center's anchor tenants are "category killers", that is, the dominant retailer in the market they serve.

Power coefficient
The ratio of power produced by a wind energy conversion device to the power in a reference area of the free windstream.

Power conditioning
The process of modifying the characteristics of electrical power (for e.g., inverting dc to ac).

Power density
The amount of power per unit area of a free windstream.

Power factor (pf)
A measure of the phase difference between voltage and current on alternating current circuits. Power factors can range from 0 to 1.0 With 1.0 Being ideal. Power factor is sometimes expressed as a percent. A high power factor means that an electrical system or device is utilizing power efficiently. Incandescent lamps always have power factors near 1.0 Because they are simple "resistive" loads. The power factor of a discharge lamp system is determined by the ballast used. "High" power factor usually means a rating of 0.9 Or greater. The power factor of "core and coil" electromagnetic ballasts may be as low as 0.5-0.6.

Power float
Device with flat blades which are tilted at a slightly horizontal angle and are fastened to the end of a rotating hub, used to compact wet concrete. The electric or gasoline motor turns the hub and blades so that they cross the surface of the uncured concrete, compacting it.

Power hammer
Gun shaped hammer, which is used, for driving fasteners into concrete in places where a nail gun does not have sufficient power. The explosive force of the blank cartridges, which drive this hammer, are powered by igniting the powder in the cartridge, which has to be changed for each fastener.

Power level handle
The power level handle supports the user's hand during cutting operations.
