Copper section in Dell rival's charger (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

accuser

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'charger' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how they can define each other.

'copper section in dell rival's' is the wordplay.
'copper' becomes 'Cu' (chemical symbol).
'section' becomes 's' (legal abbreviation).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'dell rival' becomes 'acer' (I've seen this in another clue).
'cu'+'s'='cus'
'cus' going inside 'acer' is 'ACCUSER'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for accuser that I've seen before include "one levelling the charges" , "One making allegation" , "Search, rub, thoroughly" , "One bringing a charge" , "one to prosecute" .)
