2. Phase converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_converter

   An American Rotary Phase Converter with a Transformer. A phase converter is a device that converts electric power provided as single phase to multiple phase or vice versa. The majority of phase converters are used to produce three-phase electric power from a single-phase source, thus allowing the operation of three-phase equipment at a site that only has single-phase electrical service.

3. 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.

4. Three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-phase_electric_power

   Three-phase transformer with four-wire output for 208Y/120 volt service: one wire for neutral, others for A, B and C phases. Three-phase electric power (abbreviated 3ϕ [1]) is a common type of alternating current (AC) used in electricity generation, transmission, and distribution. [2]

5. Single-line diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-line_diagram

   A typical one-line diagram with annotated power flows. Red boxes represent circuit breakers, grey lines represent three-phase bus and interconnecting conductors, the orange circle represents an electric generator, the green spiral is an inductor, and the three overlapping blue circles represent a double-wound transformer with a tertiary winding.

6. IEC 60309 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_60309

   This allows one to choose single-phase AC power at either 110–120 volts between phase and neutral or 220–240 volts between phase and phase. Since these two modes do not need three phases there is also a dark yellow-orange four-pin connector available designed for a single-phase 110–120 or 220–240 volt load.

7. Rotary phase converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_phase_converter

   With increasing power output, three-phase motors have preferable characteristics to single-phase motors; the latter not being available in sizes over 15 hp (11 kW) and, though available, rarely seen larger than 5 hp (3.7 kW). (Three-phase motors have higher efficiency, reduced complexity, with regards to starting, and three-phase power is ...

9. Mathematics of three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_three-phase...

   For example, balanced two-phase power can be obtained from a three-phase network by using two specially constructed transformers, with taps at 50% and 86.6% of the primary voltage. This Scott T connection produces a true two-phase system with 90° time difference between the phases.
