  2. 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.

  3. Rectifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectifier

    The primary application of rectifiers is to derive DC power from an AC supply (AC to DC converter). Rectifiers are used inside the power supplies of virtually all electronic equipment. AC/DC power supplies may be broadly divided into linear power supplies and switched-mode power supplies. In such power supplies, the rectifier will be in series ...

  4. Electric power conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_conversion

    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 include simple devices such as transformers, and more complex ones like resonant converters.

  5. Power inverter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_inverter

    The AC output voltage of a power inverter is often regulated to be the same as the grid line voltage, typically 120 or 240 VAC at the distribution level, even when there are changes in the load that the inverter is driving. This allows the inverter to power numerous devices designed for standard line power.

    Converter An electrical device that is usually supplied built-in the RV by the manufacturer. The converter takes AC power from a campground electrical hookup (shore power) or generator and converts that power to 12 volts DC for use in the vehicle. Converters also charge the house batteries. DeWinterize

  7. HVDC converter station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HVDC_converter_station

    When line commutated converters are used, the converter station will require between 40% and 60% of its power rating as reactive power. This can be provided by banks of switched capacitors or by synchronous condensers , or if a suitable power generating station is located close to the static inverter plant, the generators in the power station.
