  2. Wattmeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wattmeter

    A wattmeter reads the average value of the product v(t)i(t) = p(t), where v(t) is the voltage with positive reference polarity at the ± terminal with respect to the other terminal of the potential coil, and i(t) is the current with reference direction flowing into the ± terminal of the current coil. The wattmeter reads P = (1/T) ∫ 0 T v(t)i ...

  3. Blondel's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blondel's_theorem

    The 2S meter includes one potential measuring device (a coil or a voltmeter) and two current measuring devices. The current measuring devices provide a measurement equal to one half of the actual current value. The combination of a single potential coil and two so called half coils provides highly accurate metering under most conditions.

  4. Electricity meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electricity_meter

    North American domestic analog (Ferraris disk) electricity meter. Electricity meter with transparent plastic case (Israel) An electricity meter, electric meter, electrical meter, energy meter, or kilowatt-hour meter is a device that measures the amount of electric energy consumed by a residence, a business, or an electrically powered device over a time interval.

  5. Rogowski coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogowski_coil

    A Rogowski coil is a toroid of wire used to measure an alternating current I(t) through a cable encircled by the toroid. The picture shows a Rogowski coil encircling a current-carrying cable. The output of the coil, v(t), is connected to a lossy integrator circuit to obtain a voltage V out (t) that is proportional to I(t).

    A coil intended for connection to a polyphase power supply. polyphase system An alternating current power transmission system using three or more wires, each of which carries a current that is displaced in time with respect to the others. Pontryagin's minimum principle A mathematical principle used in the theory of optimal control. port

  8. Thermodynamic diagrams - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_diagrams

    The path or series of states through which a system passes from an initial equilibrium state to a final equilibrium state [1] and can be viewed graphically on a pressure-volume (P-V), pressure-temperature (P-T), and temperature-entropy (T-s) diagrams. [2] There are an infinite number of possible paths from an initial point to an end point in a ...

  9. Short-circuit test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short-circuit_test

    A wattmeter is connected to the primary side. An ammeter is connected in series with the primary winding. A voltmeter is optional since the applied voltage is the same as the voltmeter reading. Now with the help of a variac, the applied voltage is slowly increased until the ammeter gives a reading equal to the rated current of the HV side ...
