  2. Shunt (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shunt_(electrical)

    For example, a 500 A, 75 mV shunt would have a resistance of 150 microohm, a maximum allowable current of 500 amps and at that current the voltage drop would be 75 millivolts. By convention, most shunts are designed to drop 50 mV, 75 mV or 100 mV when operating at their full rated current and most ammeters consist of a shunt and a voltmeter ...

  3. TL431 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TL431

    Upon reaching its threshold (point B), the output transistor begins to conduct (turn on), and the I CA begins rising at a rate of around 30 mA/V. [9] When V REF exceeds the threshold by around 3 mV, and I CA reaches 500–600 μA (point C), transconductance sharply jumps to 1.0–1.4 A/V. [9] Above this point the TL431 operates in its normal ...

  4. NEMA contact ratings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEMA_contact_ratings

    NEMA contact ratings are how much current at a rated voltage a relay or other pilot device can switch. The current rating of smaller NEMA contactors or their auxiliaries are defined by NEMA ICS 5: Industrial Control and Systems, Control Circuit and Pilot Devices [1] standard. The nomenclature is a letter followed by a three-digit number, the ...

  5. Multimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimeter

    The resolution of a multimeter is the smallest part of the scale which can be shown, which is scale dependent. On some digital multimeters it can be configured, with higher resolution measurements taking longer to complete. For example, a multimeter that has a 1 mV resolution on a 10 V scale can show changes in measurements in 1 mV increments.

  6. Rating plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rating_plate

    A rating plate on a machine carries information about its operational limits. The plate frequently contains the names of the machine and its manufacturer, so the rating plate is often called a name plate (hence the term " nameplate capacity " for a generator), although many devices carry separate nameplates and rating plates.

  7. Shunt generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shunt_generator

    Generator separately excited by battery Self exciting generators Series on left, shunt on right. A shunt generator is a type of electric generator in which field winding and armature winding are connected in parallel, and in which the armature supplies both the load current and the field current for the excitation (generator is therefore self excited).

  8. Variable shunt reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_shunt_reactor

    A traditional shunt reactor has a fixed rating and is either connected to the power line all the time or switched in and out depending on the load. Recently [1] variable shunt reactors (VSRs) have been developed and introduced on the market. The rating of a VSR can be changed in steps: the maximum regulation range depends on the capability of ...

  9. Magnetically controlled shunt reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetically_Controlled...

    A magnetically-controlled shunt reactor (MCSR, CSR) represents electrotechnical equipment purposed for compensation of reactive power and stabilization of voltage level in high voltage (HV) electric networks rated for voltage classes 36 – 750 kV. MCSR is shunt-type static device with smooth regulation by means of inductive reactance.
