Dutch term or phrase: spoelwerking
Moet men de kabel van een kabelhaspel uitrollen bij gebruik?
a. Ja, anders kan de kabel door inductie of spoelwerking smelten.
b. Nee, want over losse kabels kan men gemakkelijk struikelen.
c. Nee, een losse kabel kan gemakkelijk beschadigd raken.

coil effect
Explanation:
The rolled-up cable forms a coil, which forms an impedance (not a resistance!) for alternating current (AC) called inductance.

http://www.onr.navy.mil/media/FactSheets/HT Degaussing Coil ...
With increased operations in the coastal areas (or littorals) of the world’s oceans, U.S. Navy ships face an increasing threat from naval mines. As the mine threat has become more sophisticated, degaussing systems have evolved in complexity. Copper coil based systems have impacted ship designs in terms of weight and size requirements. Utilization of High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) technology can alleviate to a large extent the weight and space impact to the ship of legacy degaussing system designs. ONR embarked on a multi-year FY05-FY07 Discovery and Invention Research (D&I) plan after a D&I feasibility study ending in FY04 indicated payoff for the technology. In partnership with the Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division’s Ship Engineering Station Philadelphia, an HTS degaussing coil system was installed on board the USS Higgins (DDG 76) in July 2008. The new HTS degaussing coil—the first of its kind to be installed on board a naval vessel—successfully produced a full “coil effect” and delivered the first-ever measurement of a degaussing system using superconductive materials on April 1st 2009 as the ship completed a pass over the U.S. Navy Magnetic Silencing Range in San Diego California.

Dankzij twee 3.6 Volt lithium batterijen met lange levensduur heeft de flow monitor Type F9.20 geen externe voeding nodig. Een flow aanduiding, totalisator en resetbare totalisator staan ter beschikking. Het type F9.20 kan met alle Coil effect en Reed switch sensoren worden gecom-bineerd en verzorgt de stroom-voorziening voor de Coil effect sensor.Mede door de overzichtelijke menu's en het 5-delige toetsenbord wordt de kalibratie en de bediening zuivere eenvoud.

You're welcome! This kind of stuff just happens to be my cup of tea. Studied electrical engineering for years before ending up in the wonderful world of translation ;-)

induction


Explanation:
Spoelwerking and inductie are synonymous here.

-> "Elke lange voedingskabel werkt namelijk een magnetisch veld op, waardoor inductie (spoelwerking) ontstaat."
