  2. High-leg delta - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-leg_delta

    Center-tapped delta transformer Center-tapped delta transformer voltages. High-leg delta service is supplied in one of two ways. One is by a three-phase transformer (or three single-phase transformers), having four wires coming out of the secondary, the three phases, plus a neutral connected as a center-tap on one of the windings.

    Common 3 phase configurations within a building are 208v/120 wye, 120/240 center tapped delta and 480v/277v wye. Lighting is usually fed by 277 V or 120v. Countries such as Mexico may adopt the NFPA standard as their national electrical code, with local amendments similar to those in United States jurisdictions.

  4. Buck–boost transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buck–boost_transformer

    Buck–boost transformers can be used to power low voltage circuits including control, lighting circuits, or applications that require 12, 16, 24, 32 or 48 volts, consistent with the design's secondaries. The transformer is connected as an isolating transformer and the nameplate kVA rating is the transformer’s capacity. [2]

    Portable appliances use single-phase electric power, with two or three wired contacts at each outlet. Two wires (neutral and live/active/hot) carry current to operate the device. [3] [4] A third wire, not always present, connects conductive parts of the appliance case to earth ground. This protects users from electric shock if live internal ...

  6. HVDC converter station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HVDC_converter_station

    A single-phase, three-winding converter transformer. The converter transformers step up the voltage of the AC supply network. Using a star-to-delta or "wye-delta" connection of the transformer windings, the converter can operate with 12 pulses for each cycle in the AC supply, which eliminates numerous harmonic current components. The insulation ...

  8. Split-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split-phase_electric_power

    The line to neutral voltage is half the line-to-line voltage. Lighting and small appliances may be connected between a line wire and the neutral. Higher-power appliances, such as cooking equipment, space heating, water heaters, clothes dryers, air conditioners and electric vehicle charging equipment, are connected to the two line conductors.
