2. Mathematics of three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_three-phase...

   An important property of three-phase power is that the instantaneous power available to a resistive load, = =, is constant at all times.Indeed, let = = To simplify the mathematics, we define a nondimensionalized power for intermediate calculations, =

3. Three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-phase_electric_power

   An important class of three-phase load is the electric motor. A three-phase induction motor has a simple design, inherently high starting torque and high efficiency. Such motors are applied in industry for many applications. A three-phase motor is more compact and less costly than a single-phase motor of the same voltage class and rating, and ...

4. Power system simulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_system_simulation

   When changing over from single and/or multi-phase infeed low-voltage meshed networks to isolated networks, load-flow calculation is essential for operational and economical reasons. Load-flow calculation is also the basis of all further network studies, such as motor start-up or investigation of scheduled or unscheduled outages of equipment ...

5. Per-unit system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Per-unit_system

   In the power systems analysis field of electrical engineering, a per-unit system is the expression of system quantities as fractions of a defined base unit quantity. . Calculations are simplified because quantities expressed as per-unit do not change when they are referred from one side of a transformer to t

6. Symmetrical components - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetrical_components

   Symmetrical components are most commonly used for analysis of three-phase electrical power systems. The voltage or current of a three-phase system at some point can be indicated by three phasors, called the three components of the voltage or the current. This article discusses voltage; however, the same considerations also apply to current.

7. Load balancing (electrical power) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_balancing_(electrical...

   Load balancing, load matching, or daily peak demand reserve refers to the use of various techniques by electrical power stations to store excess electrical power during low demand periods for release as demand rises. [1] The aim is for the power supply system to have a load factor of 1.

8. Power-flow study - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-flow_study

   Power-flow or load-flow studies are important for planning future expansion of power systems as well as in determining the best operation of existing systems. The principal information obtained from the power-flow study is the magnitude and phase angle of the voltage at each bus, and the real and reactive power flowing in each line.

9. Electric power distribution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_distribution

   Most of the Americas use 60 Hz AC, the 120/240 volt split-phase system domestically and three phase for larger installations. North American transformers usually power homes at 240 volts, similar to Europe's 230 volts. It is the split-phase that allows use of 120 volts in the home. Japan's utility frequencies are 50 Hz and 60 Hz.
