  2. Welding power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welding_power_supply

    The high frequency inverter-based welding machines are typically more efficient and provide better control of variable functional parameters than non-inverter welding machines. The IGBTs in an inverter based machine are controlled by a microcontroller, so the electrical characteristics of the welding power can be changed by software in real ...

  3. Alternating current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternating_current

    The abbreviations AC and DC are often used to mean simply alternating and direct, respectively, as when they modify current or voltage. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The usual waveform of alternating current in most electric power circuits is a sine wave , whose positive half-period corresponds with positive direction of the current and vice versa (the full ...

  4. Motor–generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor–generator

    An MG set used to provide a variable three phase AC voltage for an Electron Beam Welding Machine high voltage power supply. Motor–generators may be used for various conversions including: Alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC) DC to AC [4] DC at one voltage to DC at another voltage. (Also called a dynamotor, short for dynamo-motor)

  5. War of the currents - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_of_the_currents

    The war of the currents was a series of events surrounding the introduction of competing electric power transmission systems in the late 1880s and early 1890s. It grew out of two lighting systems developed in the late 1870s and early 1880s; arc lamp street lighting running on high-voltage alternating current (AC), and large-scale low-voltage direct current (DC) indoor incandescent lighting ...

  6. Rotary converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_converter

    1909 500 kW Westinghouse rotary converter. A rotary converter is a type of electrical machine which acts as a mechanical rectifier, inverter or frequency converter.. Rotary converters were used to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), or DC to AC power, before the advent of chemical or solid state power rectification and inverting.

  7. Power inverter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_inverter

    Inverter designed to provide 115 V AC from the 12 V DC source provided in an automobile. The unit shown provides up to 1.2 amperes of alternating current, or enough to power two 60 W light bulbs. An inverter converts the DC electricity from sources such as batteries or fuel cells to AC electricity. The electricity can be at any required voltage ...

  8. Universal motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_motor

    [4] [note 1] If an ordinary series-wound DC motor were connected to an AC supply, it would run very poorly. The universal motor is modified in several ways to allow for proper AC supply operation. There is a compensating winding typically added, along with laminated pole pieces, as opposed to the solid pole pieces found in DC motors. [2]

  9. Electric power conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_conversion

    A power converter is an electrical device for converting electrical energy between alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC). It can also change the voltage or frequency of the current. Power Converters can include simpler tools such as transformer or more complex like a resonant converter .
