  2. Residual-current device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual-current_device

    A residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) [a] is an electrical safety device, more specifically a form of Earth-leakage circuit breaker, that interrupts an electrical circuit when the current passing through line and neutral conductors of a circuit is not equal (the term residual relating to the imbalance), therefore ...

  3. Circuit breaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_breaker

    A circuit breaker is an electrical safety device designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by current in excess of that which the equipment can safely carry (overcurrent). Its basic function is to interrupt current flow to protect equipment and to prevent fire.

  4. Electric power distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_distribution

    Circuit breakers and switches enable the substation to be disconnected from the transmission grid or for distribution lines to be disconnected. Transformers step down transmission voltages, 35 kV or more, down to primary distribution voltages. These are medium voltage circuits, usually 600–35 000 V. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drakensberg_Pumped_Storage...

    The Drakensberg Pumped Storage Scheme is an energy storage facility built in the South African provinces of Free State and KwaZulu-Natal starting in 1974 and completed by 1981. [ 2 ] Four dams are involved in the scheme; the Driekloof Dam ( joined to the Sterkfontein Dam ), the Kilburn Dam , the Woodstock Dam and the Driel Barrage.

  6. Recloser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recloser

    During those 1.5 cycles, other separate circuits can see voltage dips or blinks until the affected circuit opens to stop the fault current. Automatically closing the breaker after it has tripped and stayed open for a brief amount of time, usually after 1 to 5 seconds, is a standard procedure. [5]

  7. Distribution board - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_board

    A distribution board (also known as panelboard, circuit breaker panel, breaker panel, electric panel, fuse box or DB box) is a component of an electricity supply system that divides an electrical power feed into subsidiary circuits while providing a protective fuse or circuit breaker for each circuit in a common enclosure.

  8. Earth-leakage circuit breaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth-leakage_circuit_breaker

    An earth-leakage circuit breaker (ELCB) is a safety device used in electrical installations to prevent shock. It consists of either a current sensing mechanism, or a voltage sensing mechanism. Such a protection mechanism may be found in the form of distribution board modules, standalone devices, and special sockets (aka receptacles ).

  9. Victoria Falls and Transvaal Power Company - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victoria_Falls_and...

    The 1920s saw a potential threat to the VFTPC monopoly it held in the electricity market of the Transvaal. F. Lydall sent to South Africa in 1917 to draw up a report into the feasibility of electrifying the South African Railways (SAR) train network. [1]: 84 He submitted his report in 1919 promoting its advantages and cost savings feasibility.
