	How Things Work - Electric Power Distribution (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The effect of this transformer is to transfer power from the current in the primary coil of the transformer to the current in the secondary coil of the transformer.
		Each power wire is at 120 volts AC with respect to the neutral wire, meaning that its electric potential fluctuates up and down with respect to the neutral wire and behaves as though, on average, it were 120 volts away from the potential of the neutral wire.
		But the fluctuations of the two power wires are opposite one another--when one power wire is at a positive voltage relative to the neutral wire, the other power wire is at a negative voltage relative to the neutral wire.

		Electrical power is a little bit like the air you breathe: You don't really think about it until it is missing.
		It is only during a power failure, when you walk into a dark room and instinctively hit the useless light switch, that you realize how important power is in your daily life.
		Power travels from the power plant to your house through an amazing system called the power distribution grid.

		According to the invention, an electric power distribution and load transfer system is provided for insuring that at least one of several power sources connected to corresponding load transfer units is fault free in the case of a single one of said load transfer units failing.
		Power is routed in each case through a power transistor 44 and power diode 47 arranged in series, thereby establishing required redundancy and isolation in the event of component failure, while concurrently presenting a simple configuration of components and a low level of internal power dissipation.

	PRPA: Learn More / ELECTRIC POWER DISTRIBUTION
		As electric power is generated and transmitted, it must be distributed to the ultimate retail consumer by the local utility.
		Also, the distribution utility is frequently the provider of energy services such as demand side management services, power quality equipment, and perhaps even loans for weatherization or energy efficiency equipment.
		Power quality complaints go first to the utility even though the cause is frequently on the consumer's side of the meter.

	Electric Power (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The electric power in watts associated with a complete electric circuit or a circuit component represents the rate at which energy is converted from the electrical energy of the moving charges to some other form, e.g., heat, mechanical energy, or energy stored in electric fields or magnetic fields.
		The resistor is a special case, and the AC power expression for the general case includes another term called the power factor which accounts for phase differences between the voltage and current.
		The fact that the power dissipated in a given resistance depends upon the square of the current dictates that for high power applications you should minimize the current.
