An LCDI cord has a fine wire mesh around the conductors, and circuitry to detect current leaking from the conductors to the mesh, which would happen if the cord were damaged or frayed. The plugs are normal NEMA 5-15, 5-20, 6-15, 6-20, or 6-30 plugs, depending on the air conditioner design, and are typically molded-on designs.
Figure 1. A simple diagram of synchronverter operation environment. Synchronverters or virtual synchronous generators [1] [2] are inverters which mimic synchronous generators (SG) [3] to provide "synthetic inertia" for ancillary services in electric power systems. [4]
These systems are standard equipment in 200–240 V countries (and in the United States lamps up to about 30 watts). A preheat fluorescent lamp "starter" (automatic starting switch) Before the 1960s, four-pin thermal starters and manual switches were used. [citation needed] A glow switch starter automatically preheats the lamp cathodes.
Central, "all-air" air-conditioning systems (or package systems) with a combined outdoor condenser/evaporator unit are often installed in North American residences, offices, and public buildings, but are difficult to retrofit (install in a building that was not designed to receive it) because of the bulky air ducts required.

Luminous efficacy is measured in lumens per watt (lm/W). The luminous efficiency of a source is defined as the ratio of its luminous efficacy to the maximum possible luminous efficacy, which is 683 lm/W. [80] [81] An ideal white light source could produce about 250 lumens per watt, corresponding to a luminous efficiency of 37%. [82]
Alternating-current (AC) submarine cable systems for transmitting lower amounts of three-phase electric power can be constructed with three-core cables in which all three insulated conductors are placed into a single underwater cable. Most offshore-to-shore wind-farm cables are constructed this way.
The plug and socket are rated 16 A 250 V AC and are intended for use only on systems having nominal voltages between 200 V and 250 V AC The plug pins are 4.5 mm in diameter, line and neutral are on centres 19 mm apart. The earth pin is offset by 3.0 mm. The line pin is on the right when looking at a socket with the earth pin offset up.
This machine was used as a generator producing 3,000-volt, 133-hertz, single-phase AC, and an identical machine 3 miles (4.8 km) away was used as an AC motor. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] Alternating current generating systems were known in simple forms from the discovery of the magnetic induction of electric current in the 1830s.
