  2. Single-line diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-line_diagram

    A typical one-line diagram with annotated power flows. Red boxes represent circuit breakers, grey lines represent three-phase bus and interconnecting conductors, the orange circle represents an electric generator, the green spiral is an inductor, and the three overlapping blue circles represent a double-wound transformer with a tertiary winding.

  3. Electrical system design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_system_design

    One-line diagrams represent the three or four conductors of three-phase power circuits with one line. Wiring diagrams are sometimes made. These show and name the termination points and names of each conductor. In some systems, enough information can be put onto the schematics so that wiring diagrams are not needed.

  4. Wiring diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiring_diagram

    An automotive wiring diagram, showing useful information such as crimp connection locations and wire colors. These details may not be so easily found on a more schematic drawing. A wiring diagram is a simplified conventional pictorial representation of an electrical circuit. It shows the components of the circuit as simplified shapes, and the ...

  5. NEMA connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEMA_connector

    All NEMA 6 devices are three-wire grounding devices (hot-hot-ground) used for 208 and 240 V circuits and rated for 250 V maximum, with the 6-15, 6-20 and 6-30 being grounding versions of the 2-15, 2-20 and 2-30, respectively. The 6-15 resembles the 5-15, but with collinear horizontal pins, spaced 23 ⁄ 32 in (18.3 mm) center-to-center. The 20 ...

  6. Electric power system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_system

    The speed at which the rotor spins in combination with the number of generator poles determines the frequency of the alternating current produced by the generator. All generators on a single synchronous system, for example, the national grid, rotate at sub-multiples of the same speed and so generate electric current at the same frequency. If ...

  7. Synchronization (alternating current) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronization...

    The source (generator or sub-network) must have equal root-mean-square voltage, frequency, phase sequence, phase angle, and waveform to that of the system to which it is being synchronized. [ 1 ] Waveform and phase sequence are fixed by the construction of the generator and its connections to the system.

  8. Circuit diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_diagram

    A circuit diagram (or: wiring diagram, electrical diagram, elementary diagram, electronic schematic) is a graphical representation of an electrical circuit. A pictorial circuit diagram uses simple images of components, while a schematic diagram shows the components and interconnections of the circuit using standardized symbolic representations.

  9. 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.
