Editing Inductive coupling (section)

==Uses==
Inductive coupling is widely used throughout electrical technology; examples include:
* [[Electric motor]]s and [[Electrical generator|generators]]
* [[Inductive charging]] products
* [[Induction cooker]]s and [[induction heating]] systems
* [[Induction loop]] communication systems
* [[Metal detectors]]
* [[Transformer]]s
* [[Wireless power transfer#Inductive coupling|Wireless power transfer]]
* Testing:
** [[Radio-frequency identification]]
** Presence of voltage
