    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid-tied_electrical_system

    A grid-tied electrical system, also called tied to grid or grid tie system, is a semi-autonomous electrical generation or grid energy storage system which links to the mains to feed excess capacity back to the local mains electrical grid. When insufficient electricity is available, electricity drawn from the mains grid can make up the shortfall ...

    R 1 > R 2, however, either R 1 or R 2 may be the source and the other the load. One of X 1 or X 2 must be an inductor and the other must be a capacitor. L networks for narrowband matching a source or load impedance Z to a transmission line with characteristic impedance Z 0. X and B may each be either positive (inductor) or negative (capacitor).

    The designations of the three contacts may vary. The IEC standards use the Line designations L1, L2 and L3. [15] NEMA standards use the Phase designations X, Y and Z. [16] Sockets intended for use with the American split Phase distribution system may have two line contacts and neutral. In this case the line designators X and Y are used. [16]

    These systems can be used to convert three-phase 50 Hz or 60 Hz alternating current (AC) for the supply of AC railway electrification systems at a lower frequency and single phase, as used by many older systems, or to rectify AC into direct current (DC) for those systems (primarily public transit systems) using DC for traction power. The three ...
