  2. Vibration galvanometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibration_galvanometer

    A 50 Hz ±5 Hz vibrating-reed mains frequency meter for 220 V. The frequency-sensitive behaviour of the galvanometer allows their use as a crude frequency meter, commonly used for adjusting the speed of AC generator sets. The galvanometer is constructed as a number of moving-iron galvanometers, sharing the same excitation coil.

    Frequency counter: Measures the frequency of the current Leakage tester: Measures leakage across the plates of a capacitor LCR meter: Measures the inductance, capacitance and resistance of a component Megger tester: Measures Resistance of an Winding of Motor or Generator And Measures Earthing's Resistance Microwave power meter

  4. Synchronization (alternating current) - Wikipedia

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

    In an alternating current (AC) electric power system, synchronization is the process of matching the frequency, phase and voltage of a generator or other source to an electrical grid in order to transfer power. If two unconnected segments of a grid are to be connected to each other, they cannot safely exchange AC power until they are synchronized.

  5. Utility frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utility_frequency

    The waveform of 230 V and 50 Hz compared with 120 V and 60 Hz. The utility frequency, (power) line frequency (American English) or mains frequency (British English) is the nominal frequency of the oscillations of alternating current (AC) in a wide area synchronous grid transmitted from a power station to the end-user.

  6. Signal generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_generator

    A signal generator is one of a class of electronic devices that generates electrical signals with set properties of amplitude, frequency, and wave shape. These generated signals are used as a stimulus for electronic measurements, typically used in designing, testing, troubleshooting, and repairing electronic or electroacoustic devices, though it often has artistic uses as well.

  7. Voltage controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_controller

    A Voltage controller thyristor based dimmer rack An electrical schematic for a typical SCR-based light dimmer. A voltage controller, also called an AC voltage controller or AC regulator is an electronic module based on either thyristors, triodes for alternating current, silicon-controlled rectifiers or insulated-gate bipolar transistors, which converts a fixed voltage, fixed frequency ...

  8. Synchroscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchroscope

    The slightly faster frequency is intended to prevent the generator paralleling onto the grid as a motor load, potentially damaging the prime mover (steam turbine or reciprocating internal combustion engine). The machine may be protected from this occurrence by a "reverse power" trip.

  9. Alternating current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternating_current

    A schematic representation of long distance electric power transmission. From left to right: G=generator, U=step-up transformer, V=voltage at beginning of transmission line, Pt=power entering transmission line, I=current in wires, R=total resistance in wires, Pw=power lost in transmission line, Pe=power reaching the end of the transmission line, D=step-down transformer, C=consumers.
