2. Grid-tie inverter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid-tie_inverter

   A grid-tie inverter converts direct current (DC) into an alternating current (AC) suitable for injecting into an electrical power grid, at the same voltage and frequency of that power grid. Grid-tie inverters are used between local electrical power generators: solar panel , wind turbine , hydro-electric , and the grid.

3. Grid-tied electrical system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid-tied_electrical_system

   A grid-tied electrical system, also called tied to grid or grid tie system, is a semi-autonomous electrical generation or grid energy storage system which links to the mains to feed excess capacity back to the local mains electrical grid. When insufficient electricity is available, electricity drawn from the mains grid can make up the shortfall ...

4. Solar inverter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_inverter

   The key role of the grid-interactive or synchronous inverters or simply the grid-tie inverter (GTI) is to synchronize the phase, voltage, and frequency of the power line with that of the grid. [8] Solar grid-tie inverters are designed to quickly disconnect from the grid if the utility grid goes down. This is an NEC requirement that ensures that ...

5. Inverter-based resource - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverter-based_resource

   An inverter-based resource (IBR) is a source of electricity that is asynchronously connected to the electrical grid via an electronic power converter ("inverter"). The devices in this category, also known as converter interfaced generation (CIG), include the variable renewable energy generators (wind, solar) and battery storage power stations. [1]

6. Short circuit ratio (electrical grid) - Wikipedia

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

   The term grid strength (also system strength) is used to describe the resiliency of the grid to the small changes in the vicinity of the grid location (“grid stiffness”). [5] From the side of an electrical generator, the system strength is related to the changes of voltage the generator encounters on its terminals as the generator's current ...

7. Wikipedia:Cleanup Taskforce/String inverter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/.../String_inverter

   The term "string inverter" is somewhat nonsensical in this context because the small-scale wind generators are not typically done in arrays like solar panels and there is typically only a single generator per installation (for small systems). Now high-DC-voltage "grid-tie string inverters" are all the rage for use in wind systems, too.

9. Electric power transmission - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_transmission

   A transmission grid is a network of power stations, transmission lines, and substations. Energy is usually transmitted within a grid with three-phase AC. Single-phase AC is used only for distribution to end users since it is not usable for large polyphase induction motors. In the 19th century, two-phase transmission was used but required either ...
