  2. Diaclone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaclone

    Other Transformers characters that came from the Diaclone line included the Dinobots, Insecticons (from the enemy Waruder toys), the Jumpstarters, the mail-order exclusive Powerdashers and Omnibots, the Decepticon planes (originally from two "JetRobo" toys, produced in the colors of future Decepticons Starscream and Thundercracker) and the ...

  3. Pavel Yablochkov - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pavel_Yablochkov

    Although it was not recognized at the time, Yablochkov's idea of using transformers to provide different voltages from the same AC line [5] was the model that modern transmission and distribution systems would settle on. As the patent said such a system "allowed to provide separate supply to several lighting fixtures with different luminous ...

  4. Ultra Magnus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra_Magnus

    Like many previous Transformers toys, the Ultra Magnus toy was a carry-over from the Japanese Diaclone line, where it was released in silver, red, and dark blue colors as "Powered Convoy," a powered-up version of "Battle Convoy," the toy which had become Optimus Prime, hence the identical cabs. [4]

  5. Single-line diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-line_diagram

    A typical one-line diagram with annotated power flows. Red boxes represent circuit breakers, grey lines represent three-phase bus and interconnecting conductors, the orange circle represents an electric generator, the green spiral is an inductor, and the three overlapping blue circles represent a double-wound transformer with a tertiary winding.

  6. Distribution transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_transformer

    Transformers designed for below-grade installation can be designed for periodic submersion in water. [14] Distribution transformers may include an off-load tap changer, which slightly adjusts the ratio between primary and secondary voltage to bring the customer's voltage within the desired range on long or heavily loaded lines. [citation needed]

  7. Circle diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_diagram

    The circle diagram can be drawn for alternators, synchronous motors, transformers, induction motors. The Heyland diagram is an approximate representation of a circle diagram applied to induction motors, which assumes that stator input voltage, rotor resistance and rotor reactance are constant and stator resistance and core loss are zero.

  8. Engineering drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing

    His work set the ground for orthographic projection which is one of the core techniques to be used in technical drawing today. Monge's methods were disseminated initially as a military secret, then far and wide, and his methods shaped the future of engineering education, and also the engineering practice.

  9. William Stanley Jr. - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Stanley_Jr.

    In 1885, Stanley built the first practical alternating current transformer based on Lucien Gaulard and John Dixon Gibbs' prototype of 1881. This device was the precursor to the modern transformer . In December, under a new contract with Westinghouse, Stanley moved his operations to Great Barrington, Massachusetts .
