In the power systems analysis field of electrical engineering, a per-unit system is the expression of system quantities as fractions of a defined base unit quantity. Calculations are simplified because quantities expressed as per-unit do not change when they are referred from one side of a transformer to the other.
EnOcean – Low Power Wireless protocol for energy harvesting and very lower power devices. European Home Systems Protocol (EHS) - merged to KNX; European Installation Bus (EIB) named also Instabus - merged to KNX; INSTEON - SmartHome Labs Pro New 2-way Protocol based on Power-BUS. KNX – Standard for building control. Previously Batibus/EHS/EIB
In electrical engineering, isolated-phase bus (IPB), also known as phase-isolated bus (PIB) in some countries, is a method of construction for circuits carrying very large currents, typically between a generator and its step-up transformer in a steam or large hydroelectric power plant. Isolated phase bus during installation at the Bui Dam Ghana ...
Power engineering, also called power systems engineering, is a subfield of electrical engineering that deals with the generation, transmission, distribution, and utilization of electric power, and the electrical apparatus connected to such systems.
The graph on the right describes an extremely simplified system, with three committed generator units (fully dispatchable, with constant per-MWh cost): [7] unit A can deliver up to 120 MW at the cost of $30 per MWh (from 0 to 120 MW of system power); unit B can deliver up to 80 MW at $60/MWh (from 120 to 200 MW of system power);
Motor control centers are usually used for low voltage three-phase alternating current motors from 208 V to 600 V. Medium-voltage motor control centers are made for large motors running at 2300 V to around 15000 V, using vacuum contactors for switching and with separate compartments for power switching and control.
The term “power system” describes the collection of devices that make up the physical systems that generate, transmit, and distribute power. The term “instrumentation and control (I&C) system” refers to the collection of devices that monitor, control, and protect the power system. Many power-system automation are monitored by SCADA.
Electric power distribution is the final stage in the delivery of electric power; it carries electricity from the transmission system to individual consumers. Distribution substations connect to the transmission system and lower the transmission voltage to medium voltage ranging between 2 kV and 35 kV with the use of transformers . [ 12 ]
