Abstract:

New solid state static frequency converters SSC can be used in place of motor generator sets to produce 400-Hertz Hz power more efficiently. All government installations that use, repair, or build electronic components for aircraft or ships use 400-Hz power. Overall, SSCs can save 20 to 25 percent of the required input power for existing motor generator MG sets used for 400-Hz power generation. In most cases, SSCs are cost effective in both new installations and in the replacement of existing MG sets.
