  2. Load bank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_bank

    A resistive load bank impacts upon all aspects of a generating system. An operator controlling a resistive 200kW load bank being used to test a diesel generator. The load of a resistive load bank is created by the conversion of electrical energy to heat via high-power resistors such as grid resistors. This heat must be dissipated from the load ...

  3. Generator interlock kit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generator_Interlock_Kit

    A generator interlock kit (or a transfer switch), eliminates the need for extension cords to power appliances. [2]Like a transfer switch, an interlock kit lets the generator energize the panel and all of its circuits (up to the load capacity of the generator); not just corded appliances.

  4. Propane bomb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propane_bomb

    Both bombs failed to detonate, so the two students opened fire anyway, killing 12 students and 1 teacher, and injuring 21 others before both committing suicide. Another 20-pound (9.1 kg) propane bomb was found south of the school, presumably as a diversionary device for the police. Other propane tanks were found in their cars, for use as car bombs.

  5. Engine–generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine–generator

    An engine–generator is the combination of an electrical generator and an engine (prime mover) mounted together to form a single piece of equipment. This combination is also called an engine–generator set or a gen-set. In many contexts, the engine is taken for granted and the combined unit is simply called a generator. An engine–generator ...

  6. Liquefied petroleum gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquefied_petroleum_gas

    The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has set the legal limit (Permissible exposure limit) for LPG exposure in the workplace as 1000 ppm (1800 mg/m 3) over an 8-hour workday. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) has set a recommended exposure limit (REL) of 1000 ppm (1800 mg/m 3) over an 8-hour ...

  7. Propane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propane

    The density of propane gas at 25 °C (77 °F) is 1.808 kg/m 3, about 1.5× the density of air at the same temperature. The density of liquid propane at 25 °C (77 °F) is 0.493 g/cm 3, which is equivalent to 4.11 pounds per U.S. liquid gallon or 493 g/L. Propane expands at 1.5% per 10 °F. Thus, liquid propane has a density of approximately 4.2 ...

  8. Joint Direct Attack Munition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_Direct_Attack_Munition

    The Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) is a guidance kit that converts unguided bombs, or "dumb bombs", into all-weather precision-guided munitions (PGMs). JDAM-equipped bombs are guided by an integrated inertial guidance system coupled to a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver, giving them a published range of up to 15 nautical miles (28 km).

  9. MAPP gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAPP_gas

    The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has set the legal limit for MAPP gas exposure in the workplace as 1000 ppm (1800 mg/m 3) over an 8-hour workday. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) has set a recommended exposure limit (REL) of 1000 ppm (1800 mg/m 3 ) over an 8-hour workday and 1250 ppm ...
