võrgutoitega

Võrgutoitega refers to a device or system that is powered by an external electrical power source, typically mains electricity. This contrasts with battery-powered or self-powered devices. Devices that are võrgutoitega are connected to the electrical grid through a power cord and adapter, if necessary. This allows for continuous operation as long as a power source is available and eliminates the need for recharging or replacing batteries.

Many common household appliances, electronics, and industrial equipment fall under the category of võrgutoitega. Examples include televisions, computers, refrigerators, washing machines, and power tools. The reliability of the electrical grid is a key factor for the proper functioning of these devices. Power surges, brownouts, or complete power outages can interrupt their operation or, in some cases, cause damage. Therefore, surge protectors and uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) are often used in conjunction with võrgutoitega devices to mitigate these risks.

The design of võrgutoitega devices often involves internal power supplies that convert the incoming alternating current (AC) from the mains to the specific direct current (DC) voltages required by the device's internal components. This conversion process is crucial for the safe and efficient operation of the electronics. Safety features such as grounding and insulation are also integral to the design of võrgutoitega products to prevent electrical shocks and fires.
