    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generator_Interlock_Kit

    Early generator interlock kits consisted of two sliding steel or plastic (depending on the brand) plates held together by three bolts and installed on the front cover of the home's breaker panel, however, some models made by Eaton (formerly Cutler-Hammer) and Siemens for panels manufactured by them install on the adjacent circuit breakers themselves and consist of a sliding arm for breakers ...

  3. Capacity factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacity_factor

    Wind farms are variable, due to the natural variability of the wind. For a wind farm, the capacity factor is determined by the availability of wind, the swept area of the turbine and the size of the generator. Transmission line capacity and electricity demand also affect the capacity factor.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_load

    Some early nuclear plants, such as the VVER-440 (pictured at Metsamor) were designed for baseload operation [1]. The base load [2] (also baseload) is the minimum level of demand on an electrical grid over a span of time, for example, one week.

  5. Interlock (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interlock_(engineering)

    An interlock device is designed to allow a generator to provide backup power in such a way that it (a) prevents main and generator power to be connected at the same time, and (b) allows circuit breakers to operate normally without interference in the event of an overload condition. Most interlock devices for electrical systems employ a ...

    The key can then be used to unlock the kiln door. While the key is removed from the switch interlock, a plunger from the interlock mechanically prevents the power switch from being turned on. Power cannot be re-applied to the kiln until the kiln door is locked, releasing the key, and the key is then returned to the power switch interlock. [5]

  7. Standby generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standby_generator

    Standby generators. A standby generator is a back-up electrical system that operates automatically. [1] Within seconds of a utility outage an automatic transfer switch senses the power loss, commands the generator to start and then transfers the electrical load to the generator. The standby generator begins supplying power to the circuits. [2]
