Grounding - toma tierra: Also known as earthing, it is the process of connecting an electrical device or circuit to the Earth. It provides a safe path for electric current to flow into the ground in case of a fault or surge. Multimeter - multimetro: A versatile electronic measuring instrument used to measure various electrical quantities such as voltage, current, and resistance. It typically combines the functions of a voltmeter, ammeter, and ohmmeter.

Switch - Interruptor: A device used to open or close an electric circuit, allowing or interrupting the flow of electrical current. Amps - Amperios: Short for amperes, it is the unit of measurement for electric current. It measures the rate at which electric charges flow in a circuit. Valve - Valvula: A device used to control the flow of fluid or gas through a pipe or passage. It can be manually operated or controlled electronically.

Tin - estaño: A metallic element with atomic number 50. It is commonly used as a protective coating for metal surfaces or as solder in electronic circuits. Breadboard - placa de prueba: A device used for prototyping and testing electronic circuits. It allows for easy and temporary connections of electronic components without the need for soldering.

Resistors - resistencias: Electronic components that are used to control the flow of electric current in a circuit. They have a specific resistance value, measured in ohms, which determines the amount of current that can pass through them. Sensor - sensor: A sensor is a device that detects and responds to a stimulus or change in its environment.

Voltage - voltaje: It is measured in volts and determines the intensity of the electric current flowing through a circuit.
