  2. Short circuit ratio (electrical grid) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_circuit_ratio...

    The short circuit ratio (SCR) is an indicator of the strength of a network bus about the rated power of a device and is frequently used as a measure of system strength. A higher SCR value indicates a stronger system, meaning that the impact of disturbances on voltage and other variables will be minimized.

  3. Short circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_circuit

    A short circuit is an abnormal connection between two nodes of an electric circuit intended to be at different voltages. This results in an electric current limited only by the Thévenin equivalent resistance of the rest of the network which can cause circuit damage, overheating, fire or explosion.

  4. Short circuit ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_circuit_ratio

    Short circuit ratio (or SCR) has multiple meanings: Short circuit ratio (synchronous generator) , a value used to characterize the stability of an electromechanical generator Short circuit ratio (electrical grid) , a metric to characterize the grid strength ("stiffness").

  5. Data entry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_entry

    Data entry is the process of digitizing data by entering it into a computer system for organization and management purposes. It is a person-based process [ 1 ] and is "one of the important basic" [ 2 ] tasks needed when no machine-readable version of the information is readily available for planned computer-based analysis or processing.

  6. Point-to-multipoint communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point-to-multipoint...

    In contemporary usage, the term point-to-multipoint wireless communications relates to fixed wireless data communications for Internet or voice over IP via radio or microwave frequencies in the gigahertz range. Point-to-multipoint is the most popular approach for wireless communications that have a large number of nodes, end destinations or end ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadband_over_power_lines

    The aim was to expand internet access to areas where traditional wired broadband solutions like DSL or cable were not readily available or economically viable. In order to achieve high bandwidth levels, BPL operates at higher frequencies than traditional power line communications, typically in the range between 2 and 80 MHz. [ 3 ]

  8. Data circuit-terminating equipment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Circuit-Terminating...

    A data circuit-terminating equipment [1] (DCE) is a device that sits between the data terminal equipment (DTE) and a data transmission circuit. It is also called data communication(s) equipment [2] [3] [4] and data carrier equipment. [citation needed] Usually, the DTE device is the terminal (or computer), and the DCE is a modem. In a data ...

    Inforex Inc. corporation manufactured and sold key-to-disk data entry systems in the 1970s and mid-1980s. The company was founded by ex-IBM engineers to develop direct data entry systems that allowed information to be entered on terminals and stored directly on disk drives, replacing keypunch machines using punched cards or paper tape, which had been the dominant tools for data entry since the ...
