2. Induction regulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_regulator

   Schematic of wiring an induction regulator. Power source is connected to R-S-T rotor terminals. Output voltage is N+1-2-3 terminals. Diagram of electrical phasors for an induction regulator. An induction regulator is an alternating current electrical machine, somewhat similar to an induction motor, which can provide a continuously variable ...

3. Brownout (electricity) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brownout_(electricity)

   However, under load, the motor may draw more current due to the reduced back-EMF developed at the lower armature speed. Unless the motor has ample cooling capacity, it may eventually overheat and burn out. An induction motor will draw more current to compensate for the decreased voltage, which may lead to overheating and burnout. If a ...

4. Voltage sag - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_sag

   A voltage sag (U.S. English) or voltage dip [1] (British English) is a short-duration reduction in the voltage of an electric power distribution system. It can be caused by high current demand such as inrush current (starting of electric motors, transformers, heaters, power supplies) or fault current (overload or short circuit) elsewhere on the system.

   repulsion motor A wound rotor induction motor using a pair of short-circuited brushes on a commutator. resettable fuse A circuit protective device that opens on excess current, and then, on cooling off, restores the circuit automatically. residual current circuit breaker A circuit breaker that detects unbalance of phase currents due to ground ...

6. Circuit breaker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_breaker

   A circuit breaker is an electrical safety device designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by current in excess of that which the equipment can safely carry (overcurrent). Its basic function is to interrupt current flow to protect equipment and to prevent fire.

7. Motor controller - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_controller

   A motor controller is a device or group of devices that can coordinate in a predetermined manner the performance of an electric motor. [1] A motor controller might include a manual or automatic means for starting and stopping the motor, selecting forward or reverse rotation, selecting and regulating the speed, regulating or limiting the torque, and protecting against overloads and electrical ...
