  2. Circle diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_diagram

    The circle diagram (also known as Heyland diagram or Heyland circle) is the graphical representation of the performance of the electrical machine [1] [2] [3] drawn in terms of the locus of the machine's input voltage and current. [4] It was first conceived by Alexander Heyland in 1894 and Bernhard Arthur Behrend in 1895.

  3. Power-voltage curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-voltage_curve

    Power-voltage curve (also P-V curve) describes the relationship between the active power delivered to the electrical load and the voltage at the load terminals in an electric power system under a constant power factor. [1] When plotted with power as a horizontal axis, the curve resembles a human nose, thus it is sometimes called a nose curve. [2]

  4. Wiring diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiring_diagram

    A set of wiring diagrams may be required by the electrical inspection authority to approve connection of the residence to the public electrical supply system. Wiring diagrams will also include panel schedules for circuit breaker panelboards, and riser diagrams for special services such as fire alarm or closed-circuit television or other special ...

  5. Mathematics of three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_three-phase...

    The plotted line represents the variation of instantaneous voltage (or current) with respect to time. This cycle repeats with a frequency that depends on the power system. In electrical engineering, three-phase electric power systems have at least three conductors carrying alternating voltages that are offset in time by one-third of the period ...

  6. Pelton wheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelton_wheel

    A wheel power divided by the initial jet power, is the turbine efficiency, η = 4u(V i − u)/V i 2. It is zero for u = 0 and for u = V i. As the equations indicate, when a real Pelton wheel is working close to maximum efficiency, the fluid flows off the wheel with very little residual velocity. [11]

  7. Wheeling (electric power transmission) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheeling_(electric_power...

    In electric power transmission, wheeling is the transmission of power from one system to another through the third-party interconnecting network. [1] [2] [3] The wheeling provider, or utility, receives compensation for the service and for electricity losses incurred in the transmission.

  8. Ohm's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohm's_law

    Ohm's law, in the form above, is an extremely useful equation in the field of electrical/electronic engineering because it describes how voltage, current and resistance are interrelated on a "macroscopic" level, that is, commonly, as circuit elements in an electrical circuit.

  9. Electrical element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_element

    Active elements or sources – these are elements which can source electrical power. They can be used to represent ideal batteries and power supplies; examples are voltage sources; and current sources. Dependent sources – These are two-port elements with a voltage or current source proportional to the voltage or current at a second pair of ...
