  3. Load bank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_bank

    An air-cooled load bank, being used for acceptance testing of a 3000 kW standby diesel generator set. This is one of three banks used to load the generator to verify performance on load changes and for factory run-in. A load bank is a piece of electrical test equipment used to simulate an electrical load, to test an electric power source ...

  4. Diesel generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_generator

    A 200 kW Caterpillar diesel generator set in a sound attenuated enclosure used as an emergency backup at a sewage treatment substation in Atlanta, United States. A diesel generator (DG) (also known as a diesel GenSet) is the combination of a diesel engine with an electric generator (often an alternator) to generate electrical energy. [1]

  5. 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 [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.

  6. Thermal power station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_power_station

    An auxiliary oil system pump is used to supply oil [clarification needed] at the start-up of the steam turbine generator. It supplies the hydraulic oil system required for steam turbine's main inlet steam stop valve, the governing control valves, the bearing and seal oil systems, the relevant hydraulic relays and other mechanisms.

  7. Motor–generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor–generator

    An MG set used to provide a variable three phase AC voltage for an Electron Beam Welding Machine high voltage power supply. Motor–generators may be used for various conversions including: Alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC) DC to AC [4] DC at one voltage to DC at another voltage. (Also called a dynamotor, short for dynamo-motor)

  8. Engine–generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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. An engine–generator ...
