  2. Single-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-phase_electric_power

    The first full AC power system, based on single phase alternating current, was created by William Stanley with financial support from Westinghouse in 1886. In 1897, experiments began for single phase power transmission. [2]

  3. Single-phase generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-phase_generator

    Single-phase generator (also known as single-phase alternator) is an alternating current electrical generator that produces a single, continuously alternating voltage. Single-phase generators can be used to generate power in single-phase electric power systems.

  4. Prospective short-circuit current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prospective_short-circuit...

    In polyphase electrical systems, generally phase-to-phase, phase-to-ground (earth), and phase-to-neutral faults are examined, as well as a case where all three phases are short-circuited. Because impedances of cables or devices varies between phases, the prospective short-circuit current varies depending on the type of fault.

  5. Power factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_factor

    Power Quality Analyzers, often referred to as Power Analyzers, make a digital recording of the voltage and current waveform (typically either one phase or three phase) and accurately calculate true power (watts), apparent power (VA) power factor, AC voltage, AC current, DC voltage, DC current, frequency, IEC61000-3-2/3-12 Harmonic measurement ...

  6. Per-unit system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Per-unit_system

    The base value should only be a magnitude, while the per-unit value is a phasor. The phase angles of complex power, voltage, current, impedance, etc., are not affected by the conversion to per unit values. The purpose of using a per-unit system is to simplify conversion between different transformers.

  7. Split-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split-phase_electric_power

    The phase shift in Europe is 120°, as is the case with three-phase current. That's why we calculate 130V * √3 = 225V. A three-phase final step-down transformer is then used. One house gets phases A & B, the next house gets phase B & C, the third house gets phase A & C.

  8. Electric current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_current

    In other media, any stream of charged objects (ions, for example) may constitute an electric current. To provide a definition of current independent of the type of charge carriers, conventional current is defined as moving in the same direction as the positive charge flow. So, in metals where the charge carriers (electrons) are negative ...

  9. AC power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_power

    The power factor is 1.0 when the voltage and current are in phase. It is zero when the current leads or lags the voltage by 90 degrees. When the voltage and current are 180 degrees out of phase, the power factor is negative one, and the load is feeding energy into the source (an example would be a home with solar cells on the roof that feed ...
