  2. Motor soft starter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_soft_starter

    Motor soft starter. Compact soft starter for a 3 phase machine, 15kW/10HP. A motor soft starter is a device used with AC electrical motors to temporarily reduce the load and torque in the powertrain and electric current surge of the motor during start-up. This reduces the mechanical stress on the motor and shaft, as well as the electrodynamic ...

  3. Electric power conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_conversion

    In electrical engineering, power conversion is the process of converting electric energy from one form to another. A power converter is an electrical device for converting electrical energy between alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC). It can also change the voltage or frequency of the current. Power Converters can include simpler ...

  4. Rotary converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_converter

    1909 500 kW Westinghouse rotary converter. A rotary converter is a type of electrical machine which acts as a mechanical rectifier, inverter or frequency converter.. Rotary converters were used to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), or DC to AC power, before the advent of chemical or solid state power rectification and inverting.

  5. Electric generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_generator

    Electric generator. U.S. NRC image of a modern steam turbine generator (STG). In electricity generation, a generator[1] is a device that converts motion-based power (potential and kinetic energy) or fuel-based power (chemical energy) into electric power for use in an external circuit. Sources of mechanical energy include steam turbines, gas ...

  6. Motor–generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorgenerator

    A motorgenerator (an M–G set) is a device for converting electrical power to another form. Motorgenerator sets are used to convert frequency, voltage, or phase of power. They may also be used to isolate electrical loads from the electrical power supply line. Large motorgenerators were widely used to convert industrial amounts of ...

  7. Power inverter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_inverter

    A power inverter, inverter, or invertor is a power electronic device or circuitry that changes direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). [1] The resulting AC frequency obtained depends on the particular device employed. Inverters do the opposite of rectifiers which were originally large electromechanical devices converting AC to DC.

  8. Engine–generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine–generator

    Engine–generator. An engine–generator is the combination of an electrical generator and an engine (prime mover) mounted together to form a single piece of equipment. This combination is also called an engine–generator set or a gen-set. In many contexts, the engine is taken for granted and the combined unit is simply called a generator.

  9. Electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_motor

    Electric motor. An electric motor is a machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of torque applied on the motor's shaft. An electric generator is mechanically ...
