In building; noggings are short cross-pieces of timber used to brace studs.

Definition of: Normal Operating Cell Temperature (NOCT)

In solar system design; NOCT is used as an easy estimate of the nominal operating temperature of a module in its working environment. The estimated temperature of a photovoltaic module when operating under 800 w/m2 irradiance, 20C ambient temperature and wind speed of 1 meter per second.

Definition of: Nose.

In building; the nose is the extending front edge of a staircase step.

Definition of: N-Type

In solar PV manufacturing; an N-type connector is a negative semiconductor material in which there are more electrons than holes; current is carried through it by the flow of electrons. This is then combined with a P-Type system to create a diode.
