  2. Rotary converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_converter

    Wiring schematic for a simplified bipolar-field Gramme-ring single-phase–to–direct-current rotary converter. (In actual use, the converter is drum-wound and uses a multipolar field.) [2] Wiring schematic for a simplified two-phase–to–direct-current rotary converter, with the second phase connected at right angles to the first [3] Wiring schematic for a simplified three-phase–to ...

  3. Single-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-phase_electric_power

    Single-phase motors may have taps to allow their use on either 208-volt or 240-volt supply. A single-phase load may be powered directly from a three-phase distribution transformer in two ways: by connection between one phase and neutral or by connection between two phases. These two give different voltages from a given supply.

  4. Split-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split-phase_electric_power

    However, 130/225 V, three-wire, two-phase electric power discontinued systems called B1 are used to run old installations in small groups of houses when only two of the three-phase high-voltage conductors are used. The phase shift in Europe is 120°, as is the case with three-phase current.

  5. Charge pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_pump

    The Samsung Galaxy S23, which takes an input current of 3 A, can charge its internal battery packs at 6 A thanks to a 2:1 current pump. [3] Oppo's 240 W SUPERVOOC goes further and uses three charge pumps in parallel (98% claimed efficiency [4]) to go from 24V/10A to 10V/24A, which is then taken by two parallel battery packs. [5]

  6. Series and parallel circuits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_circuits

    A series circuit with a voltage source (such as a battery, or in this case a cell) and three resistance units. Two-terminal components and electrical networks can be connected in series or parallel. The resulting electrical network will have two terminals, and itself can participate in a series or parallel topology.

  7. Rotary phase converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_phase_converter

    A three-phase induction motor can be run at two-thirds of its rated horsepower on single-phase power applied to a single winding, once spun up by some means. A three-phase motor running on a single phase cannot start itself because it lacks the other phases to create a rotation on its own, much like a crank that is at dead center.

  8. Two-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-phase_electric_power

    A simplified diagram of a two-phase alternator [1] Two-phase electrical power was an early 20th-century polyphase alternating current electric power distribution system. Two circuits were used, with voltage phases differing by one-quarter of a cycle, 90°. Usually circuits used four wires, two for each phase.

  9. Electric power system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_system

    A few decades ago small dwellings would be fed a single phase using a dedicated two-core service cable (one core for the active phase and one core for the neutral return). The active line would then be run through a main isolating switch in the fuse box and then split into one or more circuits to feed lighting and appliances inside the house ...
