2. Programmable load - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programmable_load

   Most commercial DC loads are equipped with microprocessor front end circuits that allow the user to not only program a desired current through the load ('constant current' or CC), but the user can alternatively program the load to have a constant resistance (CR) or constant power dissipation (CP).

3. High-voltage direct current - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-voltage_direct_current

   Long distance HVDC lines carrying hydroelectricity from Canada's Nelson River to this converter station where it is converted to AC for use in southern Manitoba's grid. A high-voltage direct current (HVDC) electric power transmission system uses direct current (DC) for electric power transmission, in contrast with the more common alternating current (AC) transmission systems.

4. Power electronics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_electronics

   In contrast to electronic systems concerned with the transmission and processing of signals and data, substantial amounts of electrical energy are processed in power electronics. An AC/DC converter is the most typical power electronics device found in many consumer electronic devices, e.g. television sets, personal computers, battery chargers, etc.

5. Pre-charge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pre-charge

   Pre-charge of the powerline voltages in a high voltage DC application is a preliminary mode which limits the inrush current during the power up procedure. A high-voltage system with a large capacitive load can be exposed to high electric current during initial turn-on.

6. Dummy load - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dummy_load

   An electronic load (or e-load) is a device or assembly that simulates loading on an electronic circuit. It is used as substitute for a conventional ohmic load resistor. Electronic loads with 800W and 4200W from Höcherl & Hackl. As counterpart to a current source, the electronic load is a current sink. When loading a current source with a fixed ...

7. Electrical load - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_load

   An electrical load is an electrical component or portion of a circuit that consumes (active) electric power, [1] [2] such as electrical appliances and lights inside the home. The term may also refer to the power consumed by a circuit. This is opposed to a power supply source, such as a battery or generator, which provides power. [2]

9. Chopper (electronics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chopper_(electronics)

   Essentially, a chopper is an electronic switch that is used to interrupt one signal under the control of another. In power electronics applications, since the switching element is either fully on or fully off, its losses are low and the circuit can provide high efficiency. However, the current supplied to the load is discontinuous and may ...
