2. Shunt (electrical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shunt_(electrical)

   A shunt is a device that is designed to provide a low-resistance path for an electrical current in a circuit. It is typically used to divert current away from a system or component in order to prevent overcurrent. Electrical shunts are commonly used in a variety of applications including power distribution systems, electrical measurement ...

3. Current sensing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_sensing

   Shunt resistor. The common and simple approach to current sensing is the use of a shunt resistor. That the voltage drop across the shunt is proportional to its current flow, i.e. ohm's law, makes the low resistance current shunt a very popular choice for current measurement system with its low cost and high reliability.

4. Admittance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Admittance

   These shunt components can be referenced to the primary or secondary side. For simplified transformer analysis, admittance from shunt elements can be neglected. When shunt components have non-negligible effects on system operation, the shunt admittance must be considered. In the diagram below, all shunt admittances are referred to the primary side.

5. Flexible AC transmission system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexible_AC_transmission...

   The goal shunt compensation is to connect a device in parallel with the system that will improve voltage and enable larger power flow. This is traditionally done using shunt capacitors and inductors (reactors), [13] much like Power Factor Correction. The most common shunt compensation device is the Static VAR Compensator (SVC). [14]

6. Shunt generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shunt_generator

   A shunt generator is a type of electric generator in which field winding and armature winding are connected in parallel, and in which the armature supplies both the load current and the field current for the excitation (generator is therefore self excited).

7. Switchyard reactor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switchyard_reactor

   Shunt reactors are used in power systems to counteract the effect of the line parasitic capacitance, thereby stabilizing the system voltage within acceptable limits. [1] The utility of shunt reactors for voltage control on lightly-loaded transmission lines was examined in a 1926 paper presented at the AIEE by Edith Clarke . [ 2 ]

   Social Security is the U.S. government's biggest program; as of June 30, 2024, about 67.9 million people, or one in five Americans, collected Social Security benefits. This year, we're seeing a...

9. Excitation (magnetic) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excitation_(magnetic)

   a shunt, the simplest design, uses the main winding for the excitation power; an excitation boost system (EBS) is a shunt design with a separate small generator added to temporarily provide an energy boost when the main coil voltage drops (for example, due to a fault). The boost generator is not rated for permanent operation;
