Serbian term

vinklovanje el. motora

Serbian to English Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering electric motors, electrical and mechanical equipment, technical loan words, advertisements, marketing
This term appears in a list of specialties and capabilities of firms working in the energy sector. I think it is possible a load word from German - Winkel/T-square - but that doesn't seem to make much sense to me. Could it be a crank or winch of some sort? Or a calibration device of some sort? Equipment for servicing?
Proposed translations (English)
4 (electric) motor wire-winding

Already made the change. Hope you don't mind.

Sherefedin, I clicked on the Edit glossary entry selection in the Options section next to the glossary entry above and marked it as Serbian - I did not see a list of source languages. But I noted it as stated. I hope that works.
Sherefedin MUSTAFA Nov 18, 2007:
Fine. Pls edit your question by clicking "edit" underneath it. You can select a source language among the yet mentioned. Thank you for correcting this.
A Word For I (X) (asker) Nov 18, 2007:
Sherefedin, I'll do that. How do we go about it?
Sherefedin MUSTAFA Nov 18, 2007:
Hi Edward, to be honest "viklOvanje" is a Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian version while the Macedonian word is "viklUvanje". You can consider the possibility to change the language pair into one of mentioned languages. Sherefedin

Peter, Thanks for the photo. That made it much clearer as well. Incidentally, I came across viklovanje and vinkluvanje too (long) after my initial stab at it. Wickeln had me on to the idea of winding but it still didn't click. I ran down some other possible leads on Winkel/winkeln too - "vincuri" Romanian "winch, screw-jack", "vint" Russian "screw", "propellor". All have the idea of rotation in some way also fitting the idea of motors but just couldn't visualize the right thing. A picture is worth a thousand words, as they say ; )
Peter Shortall Nov 17, 2007:
And "wickeln" means to wind in German, apparently.
Peter Shortall Nov 17, 2007:
There seem to be some examples of "viklovanje" on the web which also mention electrical motors... maybe it's a variant spelling of that? E.g. http://www.elevod.co.yu/servisViklS.htm
