APPENDIX A

Glossary of Power-Related Terms

Audio Noise: In the audio-frequency range, any electrical disturbance introduced from

a source extraneous to the signal.

Alternating Current (AC): A flow of electricity which reaches peak amplitude in one direction, decreases to zero,

then reverses itself and reaches a peak amplitude in the opposite direction. This cycle is repeated continuously.

Amp: A common abbreviation for Ampere. Ampere is a unit of electrical current or rate of flow of electrons.

CSA: A common abbreviation for Canadian Standards Association. CSA has developed over 200 standards

including several for electrical and electronic products.

Clean Power:

™

Noise filtering designed exclusively for Monster Power

™

products by renowned engineer/inventor

Richard Marsh. Filters out unwanted interference caused by RFI, EMI, and component-generated noise,

so components plugged into PowerCenter can deliver maximum performance without noise

entering their signal path.

Conducted Noise: Any unwanted electrical signal conducted on the power lines supplying the equipment.

Current: The movement of electrons through a conductor.

Digital Noise: In the digital-frequency range, any electrical disturbance introduced from

a source extraneous to the signal.

Direct Current (DC): A flow of continuous electric current in one direction.

Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI): Electromagnetic phenomena in which various appliances and components

generate interference that can contribute to a degradation in performance of an electronic receiver or system.
