Richard Clark jested:
"I flipped the switch to a light bulb. What direction is the optical
power?"
Seriously, away from and toward are directions. We expect a light bulb
to be an energy source. If it becomes a sink it has a negative effect.
>From John E. (Here`s Johnny!) Cinningham`s "The Complete Broadcast
Antenna Handbook", page 243:
"Again, if the base impedance is a negative number, this merely means
that energy is flowing out of a tower (toward the transmitter) instead
of into it (from the transmitter)."
Sign is certainly used to indicate the direction of energy movement or
the same thing, power flow.
