2. Circuit breaker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_breaker

   Three single-phase Soviet/Russian 110-kV oil circuit breakers 400 kV SF 6 live-tank circuit breakers Electrical power transmission networks are protected and controlled by high-voltage breakers. The definition of high voltage varies but in power transmission work is usually thought to be 72.5 kV or higher, according to a recent definition by ...

3. NEMA connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEMA_connector

   The NEMA TT-30 (TT stands for Travel Trailer) connector is a 120 V 30 A recreational vehicle standard (hot-neutral-ground), also known as RV 30. The TT-30R receptacle is commonly available in nearly all RV parks in the United States and Canada, and all but the largest RVs manufactured since the 1970s use this plug to connect to power feeds.

4. Industrial and multiphase power plugs and sockets - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_and_multiphase...

   Single phase sockets are classified as two pole (2P) and provide a single line contact and a neutral contact. In addition, a protective earth [14] (Ground in American terminology) contact is usually, but not always, present, in which case the socket is classified as two pole and earth(2P+E).

5. Split-phase electric power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split-phase_electric_power

   Single-pole circuit breakers feed 120 V circuits from one of the 120 V buses within the panel, or two-pole circuit breakers feed 240-volt circuits from both buses. 120 V circuits are the most common, and used to power NEMA 1 and NEMA 5 outlets, and most residential and light commercial direct-wired lighting circuits.

6. Electrical wiring in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_wiring_in_the...

   Each row of breakers in the distribution board is fed from a different phase (L1, L2, and L3), to allow 3-pole common-trip breakers to have one pole on each phase. The distributor's service head will contain a main fuse for each phase. Nominal voltage is usually 230 V AC between phase and neutral, and 400 V AC between phases.

7. Residual-current device - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual-current_device

   A residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) [a] is an electrical safety device, more specifically a form of Earth-leakage circuit breaker, that interrupts an electrical circuit when the current passing through line and neutral conductors of a circuit is not equal (the term residual relating to the imbalance), therefore ...
