Discontinuity Artificial Reference Discontinuities, such as holes, grooves, or<br />

notches, which are introduced into a reference standard to provide accurately<br />

reproducible sensitivity levels for electromagnetic test equipment.<br />

Distortion Harmonic Nonlinear distortion characterized by the appearance in<br />

the output of harmonics other than the fundamental component when the input<br />

wave is sinusoidal. Harmonic distortion is sometimes called amplitude distortion.<br />

Direct <strong>Current</strong> — I DC , amperes. A current flow that is constant in amplitude and<br />

direction with time.<br />
