  2. Voltage converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_converter

    In such cases, voltage converters need only be specified to convert any voltage within one range, to a voltage within the other, rather than separate converters being needed for all possible pairs of nominal voltages (110220, 117–220, 110–230, etc.)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-prong_adaptor

    The ground tab is designed to be attached to the outlet faceplate screw, which is supposed to be connected to the building electrical ground. A cheater plug, AC ground lifter or three-prong/two-prong adapter is an adapter that allows a NEMA 5-15P grounding-type plug (three prongs) to connect to a NEMA 1-15R non-grounding receptacle (two slots).

    In North America and northern South America, it is usually 120 volts, 60 hertz (Hz), but in Europe, Asia, Africa, and many other parts of the world, it is usually 230 volts, 50 Hz. [2] Aircraft often use 400 Hz power internally, so 50 Hz or 60 Hz to 400 Hz frequency conversion is needed for use in the ground power unit used to power the ...

    The Kettering ignition system is a mechanically switched version of a flyback boost converter; the transformer is the ignition coil. Variations of this ignition system were used in all non-diesel internal combustion engines until the 1960s when it began to be replaced first by solid-state electronically switched versions, then capacitive ...

  6. AC power plugs and sockets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_power_plugs_and_sockets

    A plug is the connector attached to an electrically-operated device, often via a cable. A socket (also known as a receptacle or outlet) is fixed in place, often on the internal walls of buildings, and is connected to an AC electrical circuit. Inserting ("plugging in") the plug into the socket allows the device to draw power from this circuit.

    The result with either is AC-in, DC-out. With an M-G set, the DC can be considered to be separately generated from the AC; with a synchronous converter, in a certain sense it can be considered to be "mechanically rectified AC". Given the right auxiliary and control equipment, an M-G set or rotary converter can be "run backwards", converting DC ...

    Australasian standard three pin plug, with part insulation on the Active/Line and Neutral pins. AS/NZS 3112 is the harmonised/joint Australian and New Zealand Standard for AC power plugs (male) and sockets (female). The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) "world plugs" website defines this design as Plug Type I'. The plug consists ...

    Fig 1: Classification of three-phase AC-AC converter circuits. [1] Referring to Fig 1, AC-AC converters can be categorized as follows: Indirect AC-AC (or AC/DC-AC) converters (i.e., with rectifier, DC link and inverter), [2] such as those used in variable frequency drives; Cycloconverters; Hybrid matrix converters; Matrix converters (MC)
