  2. Per-unit system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Per-unit_system

    The per-unit system is used in power flow, ... This means that the per unit impedance is 5.76∠0° Ω / 5.76 Ω = 1∠0° pu, which is the same as when calculated ...

  3. Electrical impedance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_impedance

    In electrical engineering, impedance is the opposition to alternating current presented by the combined effect of resistance and reactance in a circuit. [1]Quantitatively, the impedance of a two-terminal circuit element is the ratio of the complex representation of the sinusoidal voltage between its terminals, to the complex representation of the current flowing through it. [2]

  4. Watt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watt

    Power is the rate at which energy is generated or consumed and hence is measured in units (e.g. watts) that represent energy per unit time. For example, when a light bulb with a power rating of 100 W is turned on for one hour, the energy used is 100 watt hours (W·h), 0.1 kilowatt hour, or 360 kJ. This same amount of energy would light a 40 ...

  5. Impedance analyzer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impedance_analyzer

    Impedance analyzers typically offer highly accurate impedance measurements, e.g. with a basic accuracy of up to 0.05%, [2] and a frequency measurement range from μHz to GHz. Impedance values can range over many decades from μΩ to TΩ, whereas the phase angle accuracy is in the range of 10 millidegree. Measured impedance values include ...

  6. Characteristic impedance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_impedance

    A surge of energy on a finite transmission line will see an impedance of prior to any reflections returning; hence surge impedance is an alternative name for characteristic impedance. Although an infinite line is assumed, since all quantities are per unit length, the “per length” parts of all the units cancel, and the characteristic ...

  7. Four-terminal sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-terminal_sensing

    Four-point measurement of resistance between voltage sense connections 2 and 3. Current is supplied via force connections 1 and 4. In electrical engineering, four-terminal sensing (4T sensing), 4-wire sensing, or 4-point probes method is an electrical impedance measuring technique that uses separate pairs of current-carrying and voltage-sensing electrodes to make more accurate measurements ...

  8. Output impedance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Output_impedance

    The actual output impedance for most devices is not the same as the rated output impedance. A power amplifier may have a rated impedance of 8 ohms, but the actual output impedance will vary depending on circuit conditions. The rated output impedance is the impedance into which the amplifier can deliver its maximum amount of power without failing.
