  2. Zigzag transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zigzag_transformer

    A conventional six-winding, grounding transformer or zigzag bank, [1] with the same winding and core quantity as a conventional three-phase transformer, can also be used in zigzag winding connection. In all cases the first coil on each zigzag winding core is connected contrariwise to the second coil on the next core.

  3. Distribution transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_transformer

    A "transformer bank", widely used in North America: three single-phase transformers connected to make a 3-phase transformer. The low-voltage secondary windings are attached to three or four terminals on the transformer's side. In North American residences and small businesses, the secondary is often the split-phase 120/240-volt system. The 240 ...

  4. Single-wire earth return - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-wire_earth_return

    The secondary winding of the local transformer will supply the customer with either single ended single phase (N-0) or split-phase (N-0-N) power in the region's standard appliance voltages, with the 0 volt line connected to a safety earth that does not normally carry an operating current.

  5. Adams Power Plant Transformer House - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adams_Power_Plant...

    Adams Power Plant Transformer House in Niagara Falls, New York is a National Historic Landmarked building constructed in 1895. It is the only remaining structure that was part of the historic Edward Dean Adams Power Plant , the first large-scale, alternating current electric generating plant in the world, built in 1895.

  6. Delta-wye transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta-wye_transformer

    A delta-wye transformer is a type of three-phase electric power transformer design that employs delta-connected windings on its primary and wye/star connected windings on its secondary. A neutral wire can be provided on wye output side. It can be a single three-phase transformer, or built from three independent single-phase units.

  7. Toroidal inductors and transformers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toroidal_inductors_and...

    Thus, a toroidal inductor/transformer, radiates less electromagnetic interference (EMI) to adjacent circuits and is an ideal choice for highly concentrated environments. [3] Manufacturers have adopted toroidal coils in recent years to comply with increasingly strict international standards limiting the amount of electromagnetic field consumer ...

  8. Hydraulic Launch Assist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_Launch_Assist

    The HLA system is called a parallel hydraulic hybrid. In parallel systems the original vehicle drive-line remains, allowing the vehicle to operate normally when the HLA system is disengaged. When the HLA is engaged, energy is captured during deceleration and released during acceleration, in contrast to series hydraulic hybrid systems which ...

  9. Pad-mounted transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pad-mounted_transformer

    Single- and three-phase pad-mounted transformers are used in underground industrial and residential power distribution systems, where there is a need for safe, reliable, and aesthetically appealing transformer design. Their enclosed construction allows the installation of pad-mount transformers in public areas without protective fencing.
