Yep, that's correct. By the way, it's thoughtful of you to use ROT13;
not being too familiar with USENET, I haven't even thought of that myself when I started the thread.
I don't hear that word very often
I chose a longer word intentionally. It's less fun when it's too easy.

Not quite. (It is not 10-letter, and the word you just answered
cannot be constructed from the given alphabet chips, really)
Although, I'm well aware of why that would be the first guess.
This item could be hung up a wall, a pole, or even laid pointing up
from the floor; and it gives out a type of energy that is
different from the item you answered. Another key part to look at
is its insides, because it would normally look different
from your answer there.

That is definitely a computer //zbhfr//.
Speaking of that, mine now seems to require more force to press,
with much less feedback. Maybe it's now a time that I got to
take it apart for repair again, before it would give me trigger fingers...

The correct answer is "THERMOMETER", the variant depicted is a conventional liquid-in-glass thermometer, lying sideway; its bulb side is on the left.
Letters usage is as follows:

To be honest, I thought this drawing was very obvious, at least to anyone
who have seen a lab thermometer before...

I've got a bunch of JVAQGHEOVARs just down the road, and even a
plan for one on my wall (I overheard someone say that people could
take the print-outs at the community consultation meeting, so I
came out with one of each :) ).
Now I've also got the following aliases in my .bashrc:
alias rot13enc='tr A-MN-Za-mn-z N-ZA-Mn-za-m'
alias rot13dec='tr N-ZA-Mn-za-m A-MN-Za-mn-z'
I had to resort to my tilde account for the checksum though.
Compiling sha256sum for this PC would be a pain - I'm still an
MD5er myself.

I'll try one of these myself. It's mercilessly hard though:
_
/ \ | |
| O | ---| |---
\ _ / | |
The answer is *3* letters.
Using letters from this alphabet:
R C D V E N
Answer in all uppercase with no trailing newline checksum (MD5 not
SHA256 because it's my preference):
085aed3f5be3c71f9c1217deb1a28bcb
I'll try one of these myself. It's mercilessly hard though:
_
/ \ | |
| O | ---| |---
\ _ / | |
Hint: The letters in the answer are alphabetically adjacent.
With those out of the way, //RPQ// (//Ryrpgeba Pncgher Qrgrpgbe//) appeared to be the first apparent answer, which the ASCII art looked quite like
a third-angle drawing of this device. [1]
But the challenge's title said it is supposed to be... a "Technical Standard" isn't it? This answer looked like it should have belonged to the
"Object" category instead.
So, that means the second possible answer: the obscure
//PRQ// (//Pncnpvgnapr Ryrpgebavp Qvfp//) home video format from RCA [2]; which Alec of Technology Connections YouTube channel did a whole
documentary video series about it [3] that I haven't watched yet.
In the end, I let the checksum decide: and it chose the second answer;
so I guess I'll have to find time to watch those videos to find out
what cylinder-on-spindle on the right is suppoed to mean.

My first though was it being a DPST knife switch, but letter count didn't fit.
After serveral glances, I thought of a certain woodworking tool
which I didn't know an English name of, so I looked it up;
turned out it has a name which spelled like a certain high-speed
airborne vehicle: //CYNAR//
It is one of the woodworking tools that I don't currently have in my house.

Well the answer is INSPECTION LIGHT.
The picture is supposed to show one 'off duty', hanging down from
a post sticking out from a wall, which all of the cord has been
hung around. A very practical workshop design has a power point
nearby so that it can be left plugged in and ready for use.

Never heard of that term before; sounded a bit too fantasy
for my ear, but kids might like that.

I'm curious, which kind of "spinning apparatus" you used for "squirting"
out the melted bits of sugar? Off-the-shelf food grade one,
or some exciting DIY dubious-grade thingamajig you jerry-rigged up?
That part is still a mystery to me, because I have only seen
this kind of machines in action, which means it was spinning
too fast fast to make out of any detail on its construction.
Great drawing, by the way!

I have recently discovered that using "Fixed" console font
of 16px line height on a 720x400 framebuffer console (90x25
character matrix on 16:9 screen) with pallete rigged for yellowish
white text, makes quite a decent environment to drawn an ASCII art under.
