  2. Generator interlock kit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generator_Interlock_Kit

    A generator interlock kit (or just interlock kit) is a device designed to allow safe powering of a home by a portable generator during a power outage. It is a less-expensive alternative to purchasing and installing a dedicated transfer switch. The kit achieves the same function by adding an external interlock onto an existing breaker panel that ...

  3. Automatic generation control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_generation_control

    In an electric power system, automatic generation control (AGC) is a system for adjusting the power output of multiple generators at different power plants, in response to changes in the load. Since a power grid requires that generation and load closely balance moment by moment, frequent adjustments to the output of generators are necessary.

  4. Droop speed control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Droop_speed_control

    Droop speed control is a control mode used for AC electrical power generators, whereby the power output of a generator reduces as the line frequency increases. It is commonly used as the speed control mode of the governor of a prime mover driving a synchronous generator connected to an electrical grid. It works by controlling the rate of power ...

  5. Interlock (engineering) - Wikipedia

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

    Electrical interlock on wire mesh. 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 ...

  6. Electrical grid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_grid

    Electrical grid. An electrical grid (or electricity network) is an interconnected network for electricity delivery from producers to consumers. Electrical grids consist of power stations, electrical substations to step voltage up or down, electric power transmission to carry power over long distances, and finally electric power distribution to ...

  7. Short circuit ratio (electrical grid) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_circuit_ratio...

    In an electrical grid, the short circuit ratio (or SCR) is the ratio of the short circuit apparent power (SCMVA) in the case of a line-line-line-ground (3LG) fault at the location in the grid where some generator is connected to the power rating of the generator itself (GMW). Since the power that can be delivered by the grid varies by location ...
