Tech/Engineering - Electronics / Elect Eng
German term or phrase: Vorlauf/Rücklaufbestromung
The context is an actuator wheel that turns in different directions, depending on how the current is fed. I know what it means, but would like an elegant term or turn of phrase.
Thanks, Kevin

Vorlauf/Rücklaufleistung is forward/backward power acc. to BMW'd terminology database, and a company I work for that manufactures bearings and engine components uses energized for 'bestromt'

Hope this helps.
