2. Phase converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_converter

   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.

3. Power inverter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_inverter

   3-phase inverter switching circuit showing 6-step switching sequence and waveform of voltage between terminals A and C (2 3 − 2 states) To construct inverters with higher power ratings, two six-step three-phase inverters can be connected in parallel for a higher current rating or in series for a higher voltage rating.

   Demand exists for phase converters due to the use of three-phase motors. With increasing power output, three-phase motors have preferable characteristics to single-phase motors; the latter not being available in sizes over 15 hp (11 kW) and, though available, rarely seen larger than 5 hp (3.7 kW).

   Wiring schematic for a simplified bipolar-field Gramme-ring single-phase–to–direct-current rotary converter. (In actual use, the converter is drum-wound and uses a multipolar field.) [2] Wiring schematic for a simplified two-phase–to–direct-current rotary converter, with the second phase connected at right angles to the first [3] Wiring schematic for a simplified three-phase–to ...

   Three-Phase to Single-Phase Cycloconverters: There are two kinds of three-phase to single-phase cycloconverters: 3φ to 1φ half wave cycloconverters and 3φ to 1φ bridge cycloconverters. Both positive and negative converters can generate voltage at either polarity, resulting in the positive converter only supplying positive current, and the ...

7. HVDC converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HVDC_converter

   Three-level converters can synthesize three (instead of only two) discrete voltage levels at the AC terminal of each phase: + ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ U d, 0 and - ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ U d. A common type of three-level converter is the diode-clamped (or neutral-point-clamped ) converter, where each phase contains four IGBT valves, each rated at half of the DC ...
