The three phase induction regulator can be regarded as a wound induction motor. The rotor is not allowed to turn freely and it can be mechanically shifted by means of a worm gear. The rest of the regulator's construction follows that of a wound rotor induction motor with a slotted three-phase stator and a wound three-phase rotor. Since the ...
The vector sum of V R and the voltage drops equals V S, and it is apparent in the diagrams that V S does not equal V R in magnitude or phase angle. Voltage phasor diagrams for a short transmission line serving lagging, in-phase, and leading loads. The diagrams show that the phase angle of current in the line affects voltage regulation ...
A motor capacitor [1] [2] is an electrical capacitor that alters the current to one or more windings of a single-phase alternating-current induction motor to create a rotating magnetic field. [citation needed] There are two common types of motor capacitors, start capacitor and run capacitor (including a dual run capacitor). [2]
One supply phase (phase-to-neutral) from the utility is converted to split-phase for the customers. In electrical engineering, single-phase electric power (abbreviated 1φ) is the distribution of alternating current electric power using a system in which all the voltages of the supply vary in unison. Single-phase distribution is used when loads ...
Phase-to-phase transformer in Britain Primary line on the right toward the front and secondary lines in the back of this single-phase transformer. Both pole-mounted and pad-mounted transformers convert the overhead or underground distribution lines' high 'primary' voltage to the lower 'secondary' or 'utilization' voltage inside the building.
An American Rotary Phase Converter with a Transformer. A phase converter is a device that converts electric power provided as single phase to multiple phase or vice versa. The majority of phase converters are used to produce three-phase electric power from a single-phase source, thus allowing the operation of three-phase equipment at a site that only has single-phase electrical service.
A wound-rotor motor, also known as slip ring-rotor motor, is a type of induction motor where the rotor windings are connected through slip rings to external resistance. Adjusting the resistance allows control of the speed/torque characteristic of the motor.
Autoreclosers are made in single-phase [6] and three-phase versions, using oil, vacuum, or sulfur hexafluoride (SF 6) interrupters. Controls for the reclosers range from the original electromechanical systems to digital electronics with metering and SCADA functions. The ratings of reclosers run from 2.4–38 kV for load currents from 10–1200 ...
