  2. Buck–boost transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buck–boost_transformer

    A unit that requires 230 V AC with a tolerance of 5% will not require a buck–boost transformer if the branch circuit (under load) is between 219 V AC and 241 V AC. Measurement should be made while the circuit is loaded, as the voltage can drop several volts compared to the open measurement.

  3. Class of accuracy in electrical measurements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Class_of_accuracy_in...

    The ammeter is used in series with the load, so the same current flows through the load and the ammeter. The voltmeter is used in parallel with the load, so the voltage between the two terminals of the load is equal to the voltage between the two terminals of the voltmeter.

  4. Diversity factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diversity_factor

    The diversified load is the total expected power, or "load", to be drawn during a peak period by a device or system of devices. The maximum system load is the combination of each device's full load capacity, utilization factor, diversity factor, demand factor, and the load factor. This process is referred to as load diversification.

  5. Ampacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampacity

    A single insulated conductor in free air has 70 A rating. Ampacity rating is normally for continuous current, and short periods of overcurrent occur without harm in most cabling systems. Electrical code rules will give ratings for wiring where short-term loads are present, for example, in a hoisting motor.

  6. Electrical load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_load

    Load affects the performance of circuits with respect to output voltages or currents, such as in sensors, voltage sources, and amplifiers. Mains power outlets provide an easy example: they supply power at constant voltage, with electrical appliances connected to the power circuit collectively making up the load.

  8. Amplifier figures of merit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplifier_figures_of_merit

    The gain of a good quality full-range audio amplifier will be essentially flat between 20 Hz to about 20 kHz (the range of normal human hearing). In ultra-high-fidelity amplifier design, the amplifier's frequency response should extend considerably beyond this (one or more octaves either side) and might have −3 dB points < 10 Hz and > 65 kHz .

  9. Capability curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capability_curve

    Capability curves for generators with full converters: D-shape (red), rectangular (green), triangular (blue) The inverter-based resources (like solar photovoltaic (PV) generators, doubly-fed induction generators and full-converter wind generators, also known as "Type 3" and "Type 4" turbines [5]) need to have reactive capabilities in order to contribute to the grid stability, yet their ...
