Component wise step up/down 1 to 3 phase transformers, circuit breakers, contactors, relays, line reactors and etc. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now for the electronic side, that consist of PCB (Printed Circuit Boards), which is covered with with smaller size components and smaller voltages and current values (.1mV&amp;nbsp;to&amp;nbsp;about 24V at most)&amp;nbsp;as well. Mainly electronic are designed on PCBs for communications purposes (radio, cell phones, computers and many more other communication devices).&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Electrical vs electric vs electronic</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/ElectricalElectricElectronic/zmgcv/post.htm#478333</link><pubDate>Mon, 18 Feb 2008 11:34:33 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:478333</guid><dc:creator>Feebs11</dc:creator><slash:comments>1</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/ElectricalElectricElectronic/zmgcv/post.htm#478333</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments29-478333.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>Electric = &lt;span&gt;using electricity for power:&amp;nbsp; an electric blanket; an electric kettle&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Electrical =&amp;nbsp; &lt;span&gt;related to electricity:&amp;nbsp; electrical switching system; electrical faults&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Electronic&amp;nbsp; =&amp;nbsp;&lt;span&gt; using, based
