  2. Solar inverter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_inverter

    Internal view of a solar inverter. Note the many large capacitors (blue cylinders), used to buffer the double line frequency ripple arising due to single-phase ac system.. A solar inverter or photovoltaic (PV) inverter is a type of power inverter which converts the variable direct current (DC) output of a photovoltaic solar panel into a utility frequency alternating current (AC) that can be ...

  3. Technical support scam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_support_scam

    Technical support scams rely on social engineering to persuade victims that their device is infected with malware. [15] [16] Scammers use a variety of confidence tricks to persuade the victim to install remote desktop software, with which the scammer can then take control of the victim's computer.

  4. Fronius International - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fronius_International

    Fronius has been researching and developing charging technology since it was founded in 1945. The 1990s saw inverter technology applied for the first time to pulsed charging devices for charging vehicle starter batteries. The ACCTIVA series is a starter-battery charging system. In the field of traction batteries, Fronius offers the SELECTIVA ...

    A Sunny Mini Central mounted with a ground-mounted system in Speyer, down the Rhine A Sunny Mini Central mounted next to photovoltaic solar modules. The company was founded by Werner Kleinkauf and former board members Günther Cramer (1952–2015), Peter Drews and Reiner Wettlaufer as a separate company from the University of Kassel, subsequently renamed in 2004 to SMA Technologie AG.

    Charles Ponzi, the namesake of the scheme, in 1920. A Ponzi scheme (/ ˈ p ɒ n z i /, Italian:) is a form of fraud that lures investors and pays profits to earlier investors with funds from more recent investors. [1]

  7. Power inverter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_inverter

    A power inverter, inverter, or invertor is a power electronic device or circuitry that changes direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). [1] The resulting AC frequency obtained depends on the particular device employed. Inverters do the opposite of rectifiers which were originally large electromechanical devices converting AC to DC. [2]

  8. Potential-induced degradation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential-induced_degradation

    This is possible if the inverter is galvanically isolated, e.g. using a transformer, if specially designed transformerless inverter topologies are used, or by altering the electric grid potential to ground. Which pole must be grounded, is clarified with the solar module manufacturer.

  9. Rotary converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_converter

    1909 500 kW Westinghouse rotary converter. A rotary converter is a type of electrical machine which acts as a mechanical rectifier, inverter or frequency converter.. Rotary converters were used to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), or DC to AC power, before the advent of chemical or solid state power rectification and inverting.
