In telecommunications, facility refers to the transport network (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telecommunications_facility). In an optical transport network, facility would refer to the optical fibre plant. Terminal refers to the end equipment that is communicating over the transport network (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_%28telecommunication%29). Thus, in the context of optical transport equipment, a terminal loopback sends data received from the end equipment back to the equipment. A facility loopback sends data received from the transport network back to the transport network.

When an ammeter is connected in a circuit which terminal of the battery must be connected to the positive terminal of the ammeter?

The positive terminal of the battery would be connected to the positive terminal of the ammeter. The load would then be connected between the two negative terminals, positive side of the load being connected to the negative side of the ammeter.


What is difference between nominal and terminal voltage?

The rated voltage of a motor listed on the nameplate is called the terminal voltage. This indicates the actual voltage on the motors terminals at which at which the manufacturer designed to operate. Whereas, Nominal voltage is the design or configuration voltage of the electricity distribution system.


What are independent and dependent sources?

An independent source is a source that produce constant currents and voltage. Dependent sources are voltage sources that depend on a voltage somewhere else in the network.


Why the dc average voltage is having negative value?

Voltage is synonymous with 'potential difference', and cannot have a positive or negative value (in the sense of charge). So what you are describing is 'potential', which can. So, for example, a battery whose positive terminal is earthed or grounded will indicate a negative potential if a voltmeter is connected between earth and its negative terminal.


Is it possible for a power transformer to have an arc fault between the primary terminal and its metal enclosure?

Sure. No transformer is built to last forever. Aging and operations will weaken the insulation with time.

What are the difference between local loop back testing and remote loop back testing?

The only difference is the relative location of the device that is in loopback mode. Local loopback testing is when your device is set to send back everything it receives to the sender, aka loopback mode. Remote loopback testing is when your device orders a foreign device to enter loopback mode.


What are the difference between rollpack and loopback?

Rollback is a feature in database management that allows reverting changes back to a previous state if needed, while loopback is a type of network configuration where data sent out to a network is looped back to the sender without leaving the local system. These terms are used in different contexts and serve different purposes in computer science and networking.

What is the loopback address and what block is reserved for loop back?

The usual loopback address is 127.0.0.1 (but any address between 127.0.0.0 and 127.255.255.255 can be assigned to it) The address is also known as http://localhost/. In order to test the connection however a server would have to be installed. Apache is an example of a web based software server.

What is the difference between terminal speed and terminal velocity?

The difference between terminal speed and terminal velocity is really simple. Terminal speed can be used to refer to the maximum speed an object can reach before factors like friction prevent anymore speed to be gained. Terminal velocity, however, generally refers to the rate at which this speed was gained.
