  2. Utility submeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utility_submeter

    A submetering system typically includes a "master meter", which is owned by the utility supplying the water, electricity, or gas, with overall usage billed directly to the property owner. The property owner or manager then places their own private meters on individual tenant spaces to determine individual usage levels and bill each tenant for ...

  3. Series and parallel circuits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_circuits

    The resulting electrical network will have two terminals, and itself can participate in a series or parallel topology. Whether a two-terminal "object" is an electrical component (e.g. a resistor) or an electrical network (e.g. resistors in series) is a matter of perspective. This article will use "component" to refer to a two-terminal "object ...

  4. Open metering system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Metering_System

    The open metering system of the Open Metering System Group e.V. stands for a manufacturer- and media-independent standardization for Meter-Bus (M-Bus) based communication between utility meters (electricity, gas, water, thermal energy), submetering (cold/hot water, thermal energy, heat cost allocators), and systems in the field of smart meters.

  5. Line regulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_regulation

    A low line regulation is always preferred. In practice, a well regulated power supply should have a line regulation of at most 0.1%. [1] In the regulator device datasheets the line regulation is expressed as percent change in output with respect to change in input per volt of the output. Mathematically it is expressed as:

  6. Electrical wiring in North America - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_wiring_in_North...

    Hot is any line or neutral conductor (wire or otherwise) connected with an electrical system that has electric potential relative to electrical ground or line to neutral. Ground is a safety conductor with a low impedance path to earth. It is often called the "ground wire," or safety ground. It is either bare or has green insulation. [1]

  7. Switchyard reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switchyard_reactor

    In an electric power transmission grid system, switchyard reactors are large inductors installed at substations to help stabilize the power system. For transmission lines, the space between the overhead line and the ground forms a capacitor parallel to transmission line, which causes an increase in voltage as the distance increases.

  8. Transmission congestion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_congestion

    Avoiding the congestion is essential for a competitive electricity market and is "one of the toughest problems" of its design. The goal is to ensure that a power flow as defined by the wholesale market result does not violate the constraints during the normal operation of the grid and in the case of failure of any one particular component (so called n-1 criterion).

  9. Electricity billing in the UK - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electricity_billing_in_the_UK

    MSP kWh is the amount of electricity consumed at the 'meter supply point', which is the customer's meter. GSP kWh is obtained by multiplying the MSP kWh by the Line Loss Factor (LLF, a figure > 1) to include the amount of electricity lost when it is conducted through the distribution network, from the 'grid supply point' to the customer's meter.
