  2. Load bank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_bank

    A load bank is a piece of electrical test equipment used to simulate an electrical load, to test an electric power source without connecting it to its normal operating load. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] During testing, adjustment, calibration, or verification procedures, a load bank is connected to the output of a power source, such as an electric generator ...

  3. Load rejection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_rejection

    Load rejection in an electric power system is the condition in which there is a sudden load loss in the system which causes the generating equipment to be over-frequency.. A load rejection test is part of commissioning for power systems to confirm that the system can withstand a sudden loss of load and return to normal operating conditions using its governor. [1]

  4. Proof test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_test

    A proof test is a form of stress test to demonstrate the fitness of a load-bearing or impact-experiencing structure. An individual proof test may apply only to the unit tested, or to its design in general for mass-produced items. Such a structure is often subjected to loads above those expected in actual use, demonstrating safety and design margin.

  5. Load testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_testing

    Nearly all the load testing tools and frameworks follow the classical load testing paradigm: when customers visit your website, a script recorder records the communication and then creates related interaction scripts. A load generator tries to replay the recorded scripts, which could possibly be modified with different test parameters before ...

  6. Automatic generation control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_generation_control

    An electrical grid may have many types of generators and loads; generators must be controlled to maintain stable operation of the system. In an electric power system, automatic generation control (AGC) is a system for adjusting the power output of multiple generators at different power plants, in response to changes in the load.

  7. Unit commitment problem in electrical power production

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_Commitment_Problem_in...

    One of the major issues with the real-time unit commitment problem is the fact that the electricity demand of the transmission network is usually treated as a "load point" at each distribution system. The reality, however, is that each load point is a complex distribution network with its own sub-loads, generators, and DERs. By simplifying a ...

  8. Shaft voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaft_voltage

    Insulated bearings eliminate the path to ground through the bearing for current to flow. However, installing insulated bearings does not eliminate the shaft voltage, which will still find the lowest impedance path to ground. This can potentially cause a problem if the path happens to be through the driven load or through some other component.

  9. Static load testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_load_testing

    Kentledge load testing in Haikou, Hainan, China. Static load testing is an in situ type of load testing used in geotechnical investigation to determine the bearing capacity of deep foundations prior to the construction of a building. It differs from the statnamic load test and dynamic load testing in that the pressure applied to the pile is slower.
