  2. High-leg delta - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-leg_delta

    High-leg delta. High-leg delta (also known as wild-leg, stinger leg, bastard leg, high-leg, orange-leg, red-leg, dog-leg delta) is a type of electrical service connection for three-phase electric power installations. It is used when both single and three-phase power is desired to be supplied from a three phase transformer (or transformer bank).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Colt_AR-15_and_M16...

    The Canadian company Colt Canada (formerly Diemaco) licensed production of a rifle (Colt Model 715) and carbine (Colt Model 725), but later went on to produce an entire line of AR-15/M16 pattern weapons developed independently. In May 2005, Colt's Manufacturing Company acquired Diemaco, and the name was changed to Colt Canada.

    Low-pressure phase diagram of pure iron. BCC is body centered cubic and FCC is face-centered cubic. Iron-carbon eutectic phase diagram, showing various forms of Fe x C y substances. Iron allotropes, showing the differences in structure. The alpha iron (α-Fe) is a body-centered cubic (BCC) and the gamma iron (γ-Fe) is a face-centered cubic (FCC).

  5. Distribution transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_transformer

    A distribution transformer or service transformer provides a final voltage transformation in the electric power distribution system, stepping down the voltage used in the distribution lines to the level used by the customer. [1] The invention of a practical, efficient transformer made AC power distribution feasible; a system using distribution ...

  6. Mathematics of three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

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

    Mathematics and basic principles of three-phase electric power. One voltage cycle of a three-phase system, labeled 0 to 360° (2π radians) along the time axis. The plotted line represents the variation of instantaneous voltage (or current) with respect to time. This cycle repeats with a frequency that depends on the power system.

  7. Zigzag transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zigzag_transformer

    Zigzag transformer. A zigzag transformer winding is a special-purpose transformer winding with a zigzag or "interconnected star" connection, such that each output is the vector sum of two (2) phases offset by 120°. [1] It is used as a grounding transformer, creating a missing neutral connection from an ungrounded 3-phase system to permit the ...

  8. Korndörfer autotransformer starter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korndörfer_Autotransformer...

    Korndörfer autotransformer starter. In electrical engineering, the Korndorfer starter is a technique used for reduced voltage soft starting of induction motors. The circuit uses a three-phase autotransformer and three three-phase switches. This motor starting method has been updated and improved by Hilton Raymond Bacon.

  9. Delta II - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_II

    Delta II was an expendable launch system, originally designed and built by McDonnell Douglas, and sometimes known as the Thorad Delta 1. Delta II was part of the Delta rocket family, derived directly from the Delta 3000, and entered service in 1989. There were two main variants, the Delta 6000 and Delta 7000, with the latter also having "Light ...
