leakage current

In addition, power loss occurs as a result of leakage currents.

Solid-state switches used in X10 controls pass a very small leakage current.

For many purposes the small leakage current is not a serious problem.

By shutting down a functional but leaky block until it is used, leakage current can be reduced significantly.

The leakage current of logic switching transistors increases with temperature.

G represents leakage current through the dielectric and in most cables is very small.

They can also be used as low loss rectifiers, although their reverse leakage current is in general higher than that of other diodes.

The difference in leakage current is several orders of magnitude.

The reduced leakage currents also mean there is little need for active pumping in order to compensate, therefore low metabolic cost.

Network isolators are used in the medical industry to protect patients against leakage currents.
