2. Electric heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_heating

   Electric heating is a process in which electrical energy is converted directly to heat energy. Common applications include space heating, cooking, water heating and industrial processes. An electric heater is an electrical device that converts an electric current into heat. [1]

   They are also found on some RVs for connecting to shore power. RVs in the US are equipped for 120 V 30 A or 240 V 50 A service, and use a cord to connect to a receptacle at the campsite, usually on a power pedestal with one or more receptacles providing 120 V 30 A (TT30R), 240 V 50 A (14-50R), or 120 V 15/20 A (5-20R) service.

4. Induction heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_heating

   Component of Stirling radioisotope generator is heated by induction during testing. Induction heating is the process of heating electrically conductive materials, namely metals or semi-conductors, by electromagnetic induction, through heat transfer passing through an inductor that creates an electromagnetic field within the coil to heat up and possibly melt steel, copper, brass, graphite, gold ...

5. National Electrical Code - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Electrical_Code

   A full-load wire does heat up slightly due to the metallic resistance of the wire, but this wire heating is factored into the cable's temperature rating. (NEC 310.10) [ 12 ] The NEC specifies acceptable numbers of conductors in crowded areas such as inside conduit, referred to as the fill rating .

6. Utility frequency - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utility_frequency

   The waveform of 230 V and 50 Hz compared with 120 V and 60 Hz. The utility frequency, (power) line frequency (American English) or mains frequency (British English) is the nominal frequency of the oscillations of alternating current (AC) in a wide area synchronous grid transmitted from a power station to the end-user.
