2. 25 kV AC railway electrification - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/25_kV_AC_railway...

   The overhead line (3) and feeder (5) are on opposite phases so the voltage between them is 50 kV, while the voltage between the overhead line (3) and the running rails (4) remains at 25 kV. Periodic autotransformers (9) divert the return current from the neutral rail, step it up, and send it along the feeder line.

3. Static VAR compensator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_VAR_compensator

   Generally, static VAR compensation is not done at line voltage; a bank of transformers steps the transmission voltage (for example, 230 kV) down to a much lower level (for example, 9.0 kV). [5] This reduces the size and number of components needed in the SVC, although the conductors must be very large to handle the high currents associated with ...

4. Voltage regulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_regulator

   Line regulation or input regulation is the degree to which output voltage changes with input (supply) voltage changes—as a ratio of output to input change (for example, "typically 13 mV/V"), or the output voltage change over the entire specified input voltage range (for example, "plus or minus 2% for input voltages between 90 V and 260 V, 50 ...

5. Uninterruptible power supply - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uninterruptible_power_supply

   The main 50/60 Hz transformer used to convert between line voltage and battery voltage needs to provide two slightly different turns ratios: One to convert the battery output voltage (typically a multiple of 12 V) to line voltage, and a second one to convert the line voltage to a slightly higher battery charging voltage (such as a multiple of ...

6. Guy-wire - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy-wire

   A guy-wire, guy-line, guy-rope, down guy, or stay, also called simply a guy, is a tensioned cable designed to add stability to a freestanding structure. They are used commonly for ship masts , radio masts , wind turbines , utility poles , and tents .

   A.D. 2024—The United States. Twenty-seven degrees in a Port-A-Jon, the seat freezing my ass. I’m in the dark with a little flashlight. Chemically treated feces and urine splash up onto my anus.
