potentiometer in English

noun
1
an instrument for measuring an electromotive force by balancing it against the potential difference produced by passing a known current through a known variable resistance.
The controller reads the setting of the accelerator pedal from the potentiometers and regulates the power accordingly.
2
a variable resistor with a third adjustable terminal. The potential at the third terminal can be adjusted to give any fraction of the potential across the ends of the resistor.
There are no switches, jumpers or potentiometers to set.
