2. Voltage converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_converter

   Voltage converters can be used in vehicles with 12 V DC outlets. A simple voltage dropper can be used to reduce the voltage for low-power devices; if more than 12V is required, or for high-powered devices, a switched-mode power supply is used.

3. Log amplifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log_amplifier

   A log amplifier, which may spell log as logarithmic or logarithm and which may abbreviate amplifier as amp or be termed as a converter, is an electronic amplifier that for some range of input voltage has an output voltage approximately proportional to the logarithm of the input:

4. Power inverter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_inverter

   200 to 400 V DC, when power is from photovoltaic solar panels. 300 to 450 V DC, when power is from electric vehicle battery packs in vehicle-to-grid systems. Hundreds of thousands of volts, where the inverter is part of a high-voltage direct current power transmission system.

5. Split-phase electric power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split-phase_electric_power

   In Europe, three-phase 230/400 V is most commonly used. However, 130/225 V, three-wire, two-phase electric power discontinued systems called B1 are used to run old installations in small groups of houses when only two of the three-phase high-voltage conductors are used. The phase shift in Europe is 120°, as is the case with three-phase current.

6. Uninterruptible power supply - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uninterruptible_power_supply

   The main 50/60 Hz transformer used to convert between line voltage and battery voltage needs to provide two slightly different turns ratios: One to convert the battery output voltage (typically a multiple of 12 V) to line voltage, and a second one to convert the line voltage to a slightly higher battery charging voltage (such as a multiple of ...

7. NEMA connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEMA_connector

   Other types include special purpose connectors for boats, 400 Hz circuits such as used for aircraft, and direct-current applications. One apparent disadvantage of twist-lock connectors is that in the event that the cable is accidentally pulled too hard, rather than the plug falling out of the receptacle, exposed conductors may come out of the ...
