TERM PAPER ON THE BRUSHLESS DC MOTOR BY LAWAL ADEDAYO KEHINDE Abstract: The
brushless DC motor also called the electronically commutated motor (ECM) drive are synchronous motors that
are powered by a DC electric source through an integrated inverter/ switching power supply, which produces
an AC electric signal to drive the motor. They make operations more reliable, efficient and less noisy. In terms
of weight, they are lighter than the brushless DC motors with the same power output. It has helped a great deal

To control commutation timing, rotor position is sensed and used for timing the switching of the output
transistors to control the motor in the motor windings. The Brushless DC motor is a rotating electric motor
consisting of stator armature winding and rotor permanent magnets. . They have three phase windings that are
wound in star or delta connection and need a three phase inverter bridge for electric commutation. It has
permanent magnet which makes it have a high ratio between torque and motor size and also suitable for
applications where space and weight are critical for example, in satellite applications. The brushless DC
motors are becoming more popular in low and medium power applications due to the characteristics they have
such as better speed versus torque characteristics, high dynamic response, high efficiency, noiseless operation
and higher torque to weight ratio. They also have a long life span. With rapid development in power
electronics, semiconductor and manufacturing technology for high performance magnetic materials, the
brushless DC motors have been used for energy savings applications such as air conditioners, refrigerators, air
pumps, kitchen appliances and electric vehicles. II. HISTORY OF BRUSHLESS DC MOTOR The brushless
DC MOTOR is developed on the groundwork of the brushed DC motors. The modern machine theory was
established when Faraday discovered the electromagnetism induction phenomenon in 1831. The first DC

INTRODUCTION Synchronous generators or alternators are synchronous machines used to convert
mechanical power to ac electric power. Nowadays, an isolated synchronous generator supplying its own load
independently of other generators is very rare. Such a situation is found in only a few out–of–the–way
applications such as emergency generators. For all usual generator applications, there is more than one
generator operating in parallel to supply the power demanded by the loads. There are several major advantages
to synchronous generators that operated in parallel. * Several generators can supply a bigger load than one
machine by itself * ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
This is to ensure the phase angles of oncoming generator changing slowly due to the running system's phase
angles. There are a lot of advantages of operating synchronous generators in parallel. One of them is the other
generators can supply bigger loads than the one machine. Secondly, paralleling synchronous generators can
make these machines operate at high efficiency. One generator technically not operating at full load thus, it is
not efficient. Besides, by paralleling many generators can increase the reliability of the system. In real
situation, if one generator is breaking down, it will not affect the whole system greatly because of the power
loss to the load. Lastly, if one generator is breaking down, it can be removed for maintenance without affect
the system. CONCLUSION During paralleling two synchronous generators, some conditions are needed to be
fulfilled. Each of the three phases must have exactly the same voltage magnitude and phase angle as the
conductor to which it is connected. To achieve this match, the following conditions must be met. * The rms
voltages of the two generators must be equal. * The two generators must have the same phase sequence. * The
phase angles of the two a phase must be equal. * The frequency of the new generator, called the oncoming

an induction motor is carried out. It looks at various induction motor control methodologies utilizing current
and voltage control to control the flux and the torque of the dynamic system. Highlight of the current and
future challenges of induction motor drives are presented. To do that, a general principle of induction motor
drives is discussed first follow by phase controlled of induction motor drives, frequency controlled of
induction motor, and vector controlled of induction motor. 2.2 The Concept of an Induction Motor Drives In

When operating an induction motor and at the start position, the stator and motor inductance of both rotor and
the stator has to be kept at low level. This will help in minimizing jerking during start up. However, a higher
value of rotor resistance makes the jerks to be small irrespective of the steady state time. Dynamic modelling
of an induction motor is used to analyze the transients' effect in relation to the induction motor performance.
For a three phase dynamic induction motor, the three phase is transformed into two phase induction motor
using various transformation techniques [20]. This can be done using [21] P_i=3/2 R_s i_s+2/P ω_s I_m [i_s
λ_s ]+3/2 Re[i_s 〖d/dt λ〗_s] 2.1 where R_s is the stator resistance, i_s is the stator current, λ_s is the
complex conjugate of the stator flux linkage phase, and ω_s is the stator frequency. For a given induction
motor, the flux linkage can be controlled using the stator current which indirectly control the electromagnetic
torque. Also for a steady state, this rate of change of magnetic energy is zero. However, it has a finite
magnitude value during the transient state. 2.3 Induction Motor Phase Control Induction motor phase control is
one of the ordinary and uninterested method of electronic AC power control [22]. This method is presented in
Fig 2.2 [18, 23]. At the start position of the motor and during the first half cycle operation of the AC sine wave,

7. Electrical Energy Into Mechanical Energy
Efficiency of any machine is how well it can convert one form of energy to another. Induction motors
transform electrical energy into mechanical energy. The induction motor receives power from the provision
mains through the stator coil windings. The input power is electric power. The power from the stator coil
winding is transferred to rotor, via air gap by induction principle. The output power is a mechanical power. The
mechanical power is obtained at the shaft of the motor to perform mechanical work. Then the efficiency is
established by knowing the input power and the output power.
Efficiency of any machine is the quantitative relation of output power and input power. The efficiency of
induction motor is determined using the equation ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Its energy can be generated for both low and high voltage purposes, ranging from 12V for domestic uses to up
to 240V for industrial applications. This quality empowers it to significantly decrease waste in electric power.
Durability: another major advantage an induction motor has is that it is extremely rugged. This makes it the
optimal machine for a number of uses. Induction motors are cost effective, low cost of maintenance and as a
result these motor can run for years with relatively no cost or maintenance as they do not contain brushes,
commutators, and slip rings. Induction motor can be operated in toxic environments as they don't contain
brushes that can cause sparks (Advantages of electric induction motors. n.d.).
4.3 Negatives
Speed Control: the main disadvantage of AC motors, is that their speed is difficult to control. AC motors can
be operated with variable frequency drives that provides smooth turning torque, at low speeds and get control
over the speed of the motor up to its suggested value. Variable frequency drives enhance speed control, but
create losses with low power quality.
Control Complexity: another significant disadvantage is that an AC motor controller must convert AC
electricity to DC, and back again to an adjustable frequency and voltage output to the AC motor.
Power and Torque: the major drawback of using an induction motor has been that they develop less power, or
less torque. The motor efficiency drops at low loads because

Tips on Building a Home in Perth Western Australia Article 1 Choosing a Builder and Siteworks. On deciding
to build a home on your ideal block there are a number of things that have to be taken into account from the
very start. 1. The Right Builder – Choosing the right Builder. This is a tricky business, on one hand if you look
at builders Display Homes you may choose your builder based on the design of the home you have seen. This
is not ideal as the builder may not be to your liking but the design you like is tied to the builder therefore you
cannot take his design to another builder. The other option is to choose a builder based on friends and or
relatives experience, then try to find a design of home that the builder has that will suit your needs. This can be
an easy process as most builders have many designs to choose from. Quality and Specifications of the builder
and their Range can vary vastly from Builder to Builder. One Builder may include Special Finished Bench–
tops where another might have the Standard Laminate for the bench–tops. Obviously this will end in a
different price for the home. So all may not be as it seems with any price difference you need to compare
Apples with Apples. 2. Warranty Considerations – Most builders in Perth have a standard warranty period of 6
years. This time frame has been set by an Act of Parliament and cannot be reduced. Some builders however,

Electricity and Magnetism
History
Electromagnetism
Originally electricity and magnetism were thought of as two separate forces. This view changed, however, with
the publication of James Clerk Maxwell's 1873Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism in which the interactions
of positive and negative charges were shown to be regulated by one force. There are four main effects resulting
from these interactions, all of which have been clearly demonstrated by experiments: 1. Electric charges attract
or repel one another with a force inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them: unlike
charges attract, like ones repel. 2. Magnetic poles (or states of polarization at individual points) attract or repel
one another in a ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

Power and Magnetic Fields
An electricity and magnetism phenomenon apparently unrelated to power are electrical magnetic fields. We are
familiar with these forces through the interaction of compasses with the earth's magnetic field, or through
fridge magnets or magnets on children's toys. Magnetic forces are explained in terms very similar to those used
for electric forces: * There are two types of magnetic poles, conventionally called North and South * Like
poles repel, and opposite poles attract
However, this attraction differs from electric power in one important aspect: * Unlike electric charges,
magnetic poles always occur in North–South pairs; there are nomagnetic monopoles.
Later on we will see at the atomic level why this is so.
As in the case of electric charges, it is convenient to introduce the concept of a magnetic field in describing the
action of magnetic forces. Magnetic field lines for a bar magnet are pictured below.
Figure 3: Magnetic field lines of a bar magnet
One can interpret these lines as indicating the direction that a compass needle will point if placed at that
position.
The strength of magnetic fields is measured in units of Teslas (T). One tesla is actually a relatively strong field
– the earth's magnetic field is of the order of 0.0001 T.

Three–phase induction motor of wound rotor type is commonly used in adjustable–speed drives. According to
the type of winding on rotor, there are two common types of induction machines namely, squirrel–cage
induction motor and wound–rotor induction motor. Squirrel–cage induction motors are mostly used in
industrial drives which have cylindrical rotor with short–circuited rotor windings with the voltage supplied to
stator windings. The rotor does not have a brushes and commutator but consists of conducting bars that are
placed into the rotor slots. These bars are short circuited by the shorting rings. Whereas wound rotor induction
motors have wye–connected rotor windings. In addition to the voltage that is applied to the stator windings, the
phase voltages can be supplied to the rotor winding using brushes and slip rings. However, wound–rotor
induction motors have not been widely used because their efficiency and maximum angular velocity are lower
compared to squirrel–cage. On the other hand, squirrel–cage motors have been tremendously used in high–
performance electric drives and electromechanical systems. Therefore, in this thesis, only three phase squirrel–

For reverse voltage blocking a diode is used in series with the self–commutating device (IGBT) . However,
GTO–based configurations have restricted frequency of switching they do not need the series diode. They are
considered sufficiently reliable, but have higher losses and require higher values of parallel ac power
capacitors. Moreover, they cannot be used in multilevel or multistep versions to improve performance in
higher ratings. The other converter used is a voltage–fed type Active filter structure, as shown in Fig 2.2. It is
having a self–supporting dc voltage bus with a large dc capacitor. It has become very much dominant, since it
is lighter, cheaper, and expandable to multilevel and multistep modes, with lower switching frequencies to
improve the performance . It is more popular in UPS–based applications, because in the presence of mains, the
same Inverter bridge can be used as an Active Filter to eliminate harmonics of critical nonlinear loads. 2.2.2

The treated water used for cooling of the stator winding, phase connectors and bushings is designated as
primary water in order to distinguish it from the secondary coolant (raw water, condensator etc.). The primary

water tank and delivers the water to the generator via the following flow paths:
Flow path I :
Flow path I cools the stator winding. This flow path passes through water manifold on the exciter end of the
generator and from there to the stator bars via insulated bar is connected to the manifold by a separate hose.
Inside the bars the cooling water flows through hollow strands. At the turbine end, the water is passed through
the similar hoses to another water manifold and then return to the primary water tank. Since a single pass water
flow through the stator is used, only a minimum temperature rise is obtained for both the coolant and the bars.
Relatively movements due to the different thermal expansions between the top and the bottom bars are thus
minimized.

Abstract– The Z–Source Inverter (ZSI) overcomes the disadvantages of the traditional Voltage–Source Inverter

through state which is forbidden in traditional VSI. Different PWM techniques are available for the control of
Z–Source Inverters. In the traditional PWM technique equal shoot–through time interval is considered for the
three phase legs. Hence, the realization of the shoot–through state is easy, but the main drawback of this
modulation method is big inductor ripple and a large inductor when the output frequency is low. In this paper,

According to equation (14), the eight switching vectors, output line to neutral voltage (phase voltage), and
output line–to–line voltages in terms of input DC voltage Vdc, are given in Table1
Space Vector PWM (SVPWM) refers to a special switching sequence of the upper three power transistors of a
three–phase power inverter. It has been shown to generate less harmonic distortion in the output voltages and
or currents applied to the phases of an AC motor and to provide more efficient use of supply voltage compared
with sinusoidal modulation technique. The biggest difference from other PWM methods is that the SVPWM
uses a vector as a reference. This gives the advantage of a better overview of the system.
Out of the 8 possible switching states, two are zero switching states and six are active switching states. These
are represented by active (V1–V6) and zero (V0) vectors. Six nonzero vectors (V1 – V6) shape the axes of a
hexagonal and feed electric power to the load. The angle between any adjacent two non–zero vectors is 60

PRINCIPLE OF GENERATION, TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION OF HIGH AC VOLTAGES
INTRODUCTION
The potential benefits of electrical energy supplied to a number of consumers from a common generating
system were recognized shortly after the development of the 'dynamo', commonly known as the generator. The
first public power station was put into service in 1882 in London (Holborn). Soon a number of other public
supplies for electricity followed in other developed countries. The early systems produced direct current at
low–voltage, but their service was limited to highly localized areas and was used mainly for electric lighting.
The limitations of d.c. transmission at low voltage became readily apparent. By 1890 the art in the ... Show

The secondary distribution system contains overhead lines or underground cables supplying the consumers
directly (houses, light industry, shops, etc.) by single– or three–phase power. Separate, dedicated primary
feeders supply industrial customers requiring several megawatts of power. The sub transmission system
directly supplies large factories consuming over 50 MW.
Primary Distribution System
The most frequently used voltages and wiring in the primary distribution system are listed in Table 1. Primary
distribution, in low load density areas, is a radial system. This is economical but yields low reliability. In large
cities, where the load density is very high, a primary cable network is used. The distribution substations are
interconnected by the feeders (lines or cables). Circuit breakers (CBs) are installed at both ends of the feeder
for short–circuit protection. The loads are connected directly to the feeders through fuses. The connection is
similar to the one–line diagram of the high–voltage network shown in Fig. 1. The high cost of the network
limits its application. A more economical and fairly reliable arrangement is the loop connection, when the main
feeder is supplied from two independent distribution substations. These stations share the load. The problem
with this connection is the circulating current that occurs when the two supply station voltages are different.

39. Measure The Similarity Of Each Two Successive Cycles For...
To measure the similarity of each two successive cycles for the same electrical signal (current/voltage/power),
the author proposes to apply the correlation concept [21–24]. The correlation coefficient (r) is computed
between a window with a certain number of samples (m) in a signal (X) and another window with the same
number of samples in the same signal but shifted from each other by a time interval of hΔt, where m is the
number of samples per window, h is the number of samples between the two windows which are shifted from
each other and Δt is the sampling interval time. Equation (1) shows the correlation coefficient (r) for signal X.
When hΔt = 0, then h =0 and the correlation function (r) calculated between the two same windows of signal
Xk is unity. Our proposed technique uses two windows in the same signal shifted from each other by one cycle
time, this means the time interval hΔt = Ns Δt = 20 m Sec (for power system frequency = 50 Hz), where h =
Ns = 50 samples (the number of samples per cycle used in the simulation), Δt is the sampling interval time =
0.4 m Sec. The number of samples per window (m) is an adjustable value for controlling the window size and
the relay speed. m 1 m m [ xk xk ht xk xk ht ] r k 1 m k 1 k 1 (1) m 1 m m 1 m [ (

41. One application of magnetic fields in household appliances.
One thing that uses magnetic fields is the electric motor, which is used in many household appliances, such as
electric fans, microwave ovens, and other small appliances. In this instance the electric motor has an electric
current, giving it also this magnetic field. An electric motor converts electricity into mechanical motion. Most
electric motors work by electromagnetism, but motors based on electrostatic forces also exist. The overarching
concept is that a force is generated when a current–carrying element is subjected to a magnetic field. In a
cylindrical motor, the rotor rotates because a torque is developed when this force is applied at a given distance
from the axis of the rotor. Most electromagnetic motors are rotary, but ... Show more content on
Helpwriting.net ...
The fundamental principle upon which electromagnetic motors are based is that there is a mechanical force on
any wire when it is conducting electricity while contained within a magnetic field. The force is described by
the Lorentz force law and is perpendicular to both the wire and the magnetic field. In a rotary motor, there is a
rotating element, the rotor. The rotor rotates because the wires and magnetic field are arranged so that a torque
is developed about the rotor's axis. In physics, magnetism is a phenomenon by which materials exert an
attractive or repulsive force on other materials. ... An electrostatic motor or capacitor motor is a type of electric
motor based on the attraction and repulsion of electric charge. ... Piezoelectricity is the ability of certain

43. Electric Motors And The Future Of Electric Motors
Flick the switch and the lights usually comes on. This involves a but ton of electricity. Our past ancestors
would love to have these electric motors that we have today. You will find these motors from everything to
electric trains and remote controlled cars. As an example we will use a computer. They usually have two but
the biggest ones can have up to 12. They usually are used from the fan to cool it down and the hard drive.
These motors are in everything we use these days. From the fans we use to the hair dryers to dry our hair.
Without these we would still have horses and buggies. It's sad that we use these things everyday and take them
for granted. These little motors have six parts: Armature or rotor, commutator, brushes, axle, field magnet, and
DC power supply of some sort. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between an electric
motor's magnetic field and winding currents to generate force. In certain applications, such as in regenerative
braking with traction motors in the transportation industry, electric motors can also be used in reverse as
generators to convert mechanical energy into electric power. Found in applications as diverse as industrial fans,
blowers and pumps, machine tools, household appliances, power tools, and disk drives, electric motors can be
powered by direct current sources, such as from batteries, motor vehicles or rectifiers, or by alternating current
sources, such as from the power grid, inverters or generators. Small motors may be found in electric watches.
General–purpose motors with highly standardized dimensions and characteristics provide convenient
mechanical power for industrial use. The largest of electric motors are used for ship propulsion, pipeline
compression and pumped–storage applications with ratings reaching 100 megawatts. Electric motors may be
classified by electric power source type, internal construction, application, type of motion output, and so on.
Thomas Davenport developed the first real electric motor although Joseph Henry and Michael Faraday created
early motion devices using electromagnetic fields. The early motor created spinning disks or levers that rocked

45. Gas Turbines' Sensitivity to Critical Speeds
Gas turbines are very sensitive to critical speeds affecting their low pressure blades. These critical speeds may
be close to the rated operating speed leaving a small margin on the allowed frequency range before reaching a
protective Changeover. Typically a protective instantaneous low–speed Changeover on gas turbines may be set
at 96% of the nominal system frequency. Furthermore, system generation and stability are at risk as the
frequency drops. This is specially the case for a thermal generation plant where power output mostly depends
on motor–driven auxiliary loads, such as boiler feed water pumps, coal pulverizing, and draft fans. The drop in
system frequency instigates a rapid fall of power output to the auxiliary loads, causing further reduction of the
energy input to the turbine generator. This sequence of events further deteriorates the system frequency
endangering the entire plant stability. To halt the drop in frequency, it is necessary to intentionally, and
automatically disconnect a portion of the load equal to or greater than the generation deficiency in order to
achieve balanced power economics while maintaining system stability. Automated load shedding systems are
necessary for industrial power systems since sudden disturbances can plunge a system into a hazardous state
much faster than an operator can react. These automated schemes must be designed and implemented to
possess in–depth knowledge of system operating parameters and must rely on time sensitive

Abstract: Nowadays an Inverter is most commonly used device in almost every field. An inverter gives ac
square wave output. The objective of this paper is to obtain a three–phase ac voltage output of 3–phase inverter
in Simulation. An inverter receives dc supply as input and generates an ac output. The dc input of 3–phase
inverter is obtained by constant dc source. The inverter circuit consists of six IGBTs which are used for
conversion of dc to ac supply. Simulation of 3–phase inverter is done in MATLAB software.
Keywords: 3 phase inverter, constant dc source, MATLAB software, simulink, THD.
Introduction: An inverter is a DC to AC converter, used to convert a dc input voltage into a symmetrical ac
output voltage of desired magnitude and frequency. The waveshape of output ac voltage of inverter should be
sinusoidal. However, practical inverters give output voltage that are non–sinusoidal and contain harmonics.
The waveshapes of output voltage are square, quasi–square or distorted sinusoidal. Inverters used in low and
medium power applications normally give square or quasi–square wave output. However, in high–power
applications sinusoidal waveform is required, so inverters are carefully designed to give sinusoidal output with
low distortion. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

Generators–Primary Cooling Water Circuit functioning :
In order to distinguish the treated water from the secondary coolant (raw water, condensator etc.) it is named as
primary water because it is used for cooling stator winding, phase connectors and bushings . The secondary
cooling absorbs the heat from the primary cooler when water is circulated in a closed circuit by the primary
water cooler. The pump is supplied with in primary water cooler. Water is supplied to the flow paths of the
generator by supplying it to the primary water tank i.e by supplying it to tht primary water cooler through the
pump.

water return to the primary water tank which comes from another water manifold which in turn comes from the
similar hoses.Minimum temperature rise is obtained for both the bars and the coolers because the water folw is

High–voltage overhead conductors are not covered by insulation. The conductor material is nearly always an
aluminium alloy, made into several strands and possibly reinforced with steel strands. Copper was sometimes
used for overhead transmission but aluminium is lower in weight for only marginally reduced performance,
and much lower in cost. Overhead conductors are a commodity supplied by several companies worldwide.
Improved conductor material and shapes are regularly used to allow increased capacity and modernize
transmission circuits. Conductor sizes range from 12 mm2 (#6 American wire gauge) to 750 mm2 (1,590,000
circular mils area), with varying resistance and current–carrying capacity. Thicker wires would lead to a
relatively small increase in capacity due to the skin effect, that causes most of the current to flow close to the

A microgrid is an interconnection of distributed generations (DGs), either a set of dispatchable generating
sources such as, gas turbines and fuel cells or non–dispatchable generators such as, wind turbines and
photovoltaic sources, integrated with electrical and thermal energy storage devices to meet the customers' local
energy needs, operating as a single system and small–scale, on low–voltage distribution systems providing
both power and heat. To ensure that the microgrid is operated as a single aggregated system and meets power
quality, reliability and security standards, power electronic interfaces and controls need to be applied [1–2]. A
microgrid should be capable work in two modes, grid–connected or islanded. The DGs are usually power
electronics interfaced and in the grid–connected mode of operation, a microgrid is supported by the main grid's
voltage and frequency. In the island mode, the DG control is responsible for frequency regulation. Moreover,
the control is also responsible for managing the active and reactive power contributions of the DG system,
such that the load power is properly shared amongst the DG systems of the microgrid. Centralized control
approaches, however, require remarkable data transfer capacities and reliable communication links [3], [4] and

I. INTRODUCTION Since the industrial revolution started, the acceleration of technology development never
stopped. However, with the development of new technologies, environment is suffering the consequences. The
rate of Carbon dioxide is increasing rapidly. To mitigate this pollution, the concept of electric vehicle arose.
The electric vehicles contribute in reducing the carbon dioxide emissions[1]. Thus, the use of electric vehicles
is getting more popular as time goes by. As a result of that, electric vehicles must be integrated to the electric
grid. They will be treated as electric loads, which means that all concepts of power system will be applied on
them. Therefore, when electric vehicles are charged, they will cause voltage drop on the distribution feeders.
Hence, the presence of voltage regulators might change the voltage response of the system. II. VOLTAGE

ignored. All phases Stator resistance, self and mutual inductance are equal and constant. Hysteresis and eddy
current losses are eliminated And

77. How Fast Charging Is Becoming The Leading Technology
Fast charging is becoming the leading technology used to reenergize electric vehicles in 30 – 60 minutes. With
the ownership of EVs doubling each year, the need to implement efficient, fast charging infrastructure is
progressively increasing. There are two technical approaches to establish fast charging 1. via a high power, 3–
phase AC connection from an AC charging post at the charging station to an on–board high power charger in
the EV or 2. via a high power DC connection from a high power DC charger at the charging station directly to
the terminals of the battery in the EV. In this section, we will review AC level 2, DC/AC level 3 charging
stations to improve our knowledge and the design of our project.

It supplies 22 Kw at rated working voltage 400Vac and rated current of 32 amps to the vehicle charging
system. At those rates, it is capable of fully charging a 24kWh battery in 1 – 2 hours, thus making it
considerably faster than 230 Vac as well as Level 1 charging – which uses 120V AC, supplying 1.9kWh at
max. current of 16 amps, charging the same battery in 12–18 hours. The higher voltage transfer of AC level 2
charging shortens charging time to roughly 60%. The components used in an AC level 2 charging include:
1. The Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE), a general term used for any off–board equipment used for
the purpose of delivering energy from the premises wiring to the electric vehicle. The interface between the
EVSE and the Utility 's premises wiring may be a direct "hard–wire" or plug and receptacle interface. EVSE
includes: Vehicle Charge Cord, Charge stands (public or residential), attachment plugs, power outlets, vehicle
connector, miscellaneous infrastructure. The main functions of Electric vehicle supply equipment include:
Providing enclosure and method of attachment to AC mains (plug or direct connect), generation of control
pilot signal, protection from ground faults, switching power to vehicle based on vehicle command, displaying
the presence of AC input.
2. The EV battery located on–board the vehicle.
3. The Inlet, which is considered part of the

79. Folsom Powerhouse Accomplishments
Perched high above the shore of Lake Natoma, Folsom Powerhouse State Historic Park displays the work of
men who were critical to the creation of electric power systems in use today. The Powerhouse, with its original
1895 equipment, illustrates how power systems were constructed in the late 19th century. It is the work of a
General Electric (GE) Corporation team of many brilliant individuals whose contributions were not always
recognized in their lifetimes. Many attempts have been made to describe the significance and stunning
accomplishments of the Folsom Powerhouse. The word "first" is commonly used. This claim is sometimes
incorrectly applied and does not do justice to the GE team that brought together all the advanced technology of
the day to create a showcase hydroelectric power facility. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
In 1884, Judge Lorenzo Sawyer's ruling against the North Bloomfield Mining and Gravel Company (for the
full story, see Malakoff Diggings) ended hydraulic mining and created a base of unemployed workers with
journeyman skills in hydro engineering. Their experience with penstocks and monitor nozzles was invaluable,
and they were eager for work. As mine shafts replaced hydraulic mining, a power source was needed to operate
water pumps, air pumps, stamp mills, lighting, and other machinery. Steam power plants required boilers,
piping, the ongoing costs of coal or wood fuel, and a significant workforce to run the operation. Even with the
cost of building dams, hydroelectricity was a less expensive option. One of the first recorded uses of
hydroelectric power for mining in California was the 1889 DC powerhouse for the Dalmatia mine in El
Dorado County. Mine owners whose facilities were distant from a water source were eager to try the new AC
technology. Those that did began achieving milestone transmission distances. Poly–phase
