2. Voltage converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_converter

   A transformer would be used for higher power. Transformers do not change the frequency of electricity; in many regions with 100–120 V, electricity is supplied at 60 Hz, and 210–240 V regions tend to use 50 Hz. This may affect operation of devices which depend on mains frequency (some audio turntables and mains-only electric clocks, etc ...

3. AC-to-AC converter - Wikipedia

   Fig 2: Topology of (regenerative) voltage-source inverter AC/DC-AC converter [3] Fig 3: Topology of current-source inverter AC/DC-AC converter [4] [5] There are two types of converters with DC link: Voltage-source inverter (VSI) converters (Fig. 2): In VSI converters, the rectifier consists of a diode-bridge and the DC link consists of a shunt ...

4. Power inverter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_inverter

   Waveform produced by a cigarette lighter 12 volt DC to 120 V AC 60 Hz inverter. The modified sine wave is the sum of two square waves, one of which is delayed one-quarter of the period with respect to the other. The result is a repeated voltage step sequence of zero, peak positive, zero, peak negative, and again zero.

5. Alternating current - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternating_current

   A schematic representation of long distance electric power transmission. From left to right: G=generator, U=step-up transformer, V=voltage at beginning of transmission line, Pt=power entering transmission line, I=current in wires, R=total resistance in wires, Pw=power lost in transmission line, Pe=power reaching the end of the transmission line, D=step-down transformer, C=consumers.

6. Electric power conversion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_conversion

   Aircraft often use 400 Hz power internally, so 50 Hz or 60 Hz to 400 Hz frequency conversion is needed for use in the ground power unit used to power the airplane while it is on the ground. Conversely, internal 400 Hz internal power may be converted to 50 Hz or 60 Hz for convenience power outlets available to passengers during flight.

7. Scott-T transformer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott-T_transformer

   Standard Scott Connection 3 φ to 2 φ. Assuming the desired voltage is the same on the two and three phase sides, the Scott-T transformer connection (shown right) consists of a centre-tapped 1:1 ratio main transformer, T1, and a √ 3 /2(≈86.6%) ratio teaser transformer, T2. The centre-tapped side of T1 is connected between two of the phases ...
