2. Single-phase electric power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-phase_electric_power

   One supply phase (phase-to-neutral) from the utility is converted to split-phase for the customers. In electrical engineering, single-phase electric power (abbreviated 1φ ) is the distribution of alternating current electric power using a system in which all the voltages of the supply vary in unison.

3. Generator (circuit theory) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generator_(circuit_theory)

   A generator in electrical circuit theory is one of two ideal elements: an ideal voltage source, or an ideal current source. [1] These are two of the fundamental elements in circuit theory. Real electrical generators are most commonly modelled as a non-ideal source consisting of a combination of an ideal source and a resistor.

4. Constant-voltage speaker system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant-voltage_speaker...

   600 watt transformers are widely available for contractors needing high power loudspeakers in constant-voltage installations. [12] Special-purpose transformers capable of handling 1250 watts down as low as 50 Hz are available. [4] One problem with high power, high current transformers is that fewer can be used on a single constant-voltage line.

5. Single-phase generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-phase_generator

   By cutting lines of force through rotation, it produces electric current. The current is sent out of the generator unit through two sets of slip rings and brushes, one of which is used for each end of the armature. In this two-pole design, as the armature rotates one revolution, it generates one cycle of single phase alternating current (AC).

6. Synchronization (alternating current) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronization...

   As the generator speed changes, the lights will flicker at the beat frequency proportional to the difference between generator frequency and system frequency. When the voltage at the generator is opposite to the system voltage (either ahead or behind in phase), the lamps will be bright. When the voltage at the generator matches the system ...

7. Engine–generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine–generator

   An engine–generator is the combination of an electrical generator and an engine (prime mover) mounted together to form a single piece of equipment. This combination is also called an engine–generator set or a gen-set. In many contexts, the engine is taken for granted and the combined unit is simply called a generator. An engine–generator ...
