A power inverter, inverter, or invertor is a power electronic device or circuitry that changes direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). [1] The resulting AC frequency obtained depends on the particular device employed.
In power engineering, a single-line diagram ( SLD ), also sometimes called one-line diagram, is a simplest symbolic representation of an electric power system. [ 1][ 2] A single line in the diagram typically corresponds to more than one physical conductor: in a direct current system the line includes the supply and return paths, in a three ...
The CC-Link Partner Association (CLPA) offers a family of open-architecture networks. These originated with the CC-Link (Control & Communication) fieldbus in 1996, [ 1] developed by Mitsubishi Electric Corporation. In 2000, [ 1] this was released as an “Open” network so that independent automation equipment manufacturers could incorporate ...
Electric generator. U.S. NRC image of a modern steam turbine generator (STG). In electricity generation, a generator[ 1] is a device that converts motion-based power ( potential and kinetic energy) or fuel-based power ( chemical energy) into electric power for use in an external circuit. Sources of mechanical energy include steam turbines, gas ...
Steam locomotive components. Main components found on a typical steam locomotive include: The main components of a typical steam locomotive. Click or hover over numbers to see names. ( enlarge) The diagram, which is not to scale, is a composite of various designs in the late steam era. Some components shown are not the same as, or are not ...
Earthing systems. v. t. e. An earthing system (UK and IEC) or grounding system (US) connects specific parts of an electric power system with the ground, typically the equipments conductive surface, for safety and functional purposes. [ 1] The choice of earthing system can affect the safety and electromagnetic compatibility of the installation.
The latest set of Interoperability Guidelines from the Digital Living Network Alliance have been released and the group claims the new standard has been developed with the blessing of global cable ...
In economics, an Edgeworth box, sometimes referred to as an Edgeworth-Bowley box, is a graphical representation of a market with just two commodities, X and Y, and two consumers. The dimensions of the box are the total quantities Ω x and Ω y of the two goods. Let the consumers be Octavio and Abby. The top right-hand corner of the box ...
