  2. Electric generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_generator

    U.S. NRC image of a modern steam turbine generator (STG). In electricity generation, a generator, also called an electric generator, electrical generator, and electromagnetic generator is an electromechanical device that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy for use in an external circuit.

  3. Homelite Corporation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homelite_Corporation

    Homelite Super XL 12 automatic Chainsaw. Homelite Corporation is an American power equipment manufacturer, i.e. (chainsaws, leafs blowers, trimmers), that became notable for being one of the largest post-World War II manufacturers of portable electrical generators and professional and consumer level chainsaws, as well as holding the distinction of producing the world's first one-man operated ...

  4. Automatic generation control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_generation_control

    An electrical grid may have many types of generators and loads; generators must be controlled to maintain stable operation of the system. In an electric power system, automatic generation control (AGC) is a system for adjusting the power output of multiple generators at different power plants, in response to changes in the load. Since a power ...

  6. String trimmer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_trimmer

    A fixed line style string trimmer head. A fixed-line string trimmer has a trimmer head that takes pre-cut line inserts. There is no wound spool of line in the trimmer head; the user instead feeds the pre-cut line in to the appropriate slots, making the trimmer easier to feed line into and troubleshoot than a bump feed system.

  7. Black start - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_start

    A black start is the process of restoring an electric power station, a part of an electric grid or an industrial plant, to operation without relying on the external electric power transmission network to recover from a total or partial shutdown. [1] Power to restart a generating station or plant may come from an on-site black start standby ...

  8. Stator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stator

    Rotor (lower left) and stator (upper right) of an electric motor Stator of a 3-phase AC-motor Stator of a brushless DC motor from computer cooler fan.. The stator is the stationary part of a rotary system, [1] found in electric generators, electric motors, sirens, mud motors, or biological rotors (such as bacterial flagella or ATP synthase).

  9. Single-phase generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-phase_generator

    Elementary generator is an example of single-phase generators with two poles. 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.
