14-
This wiki serves as a resource for power systems engineers, researchers, and students, providing quick access to and clear explanations of terminologies in the power systems field, particularly when multiple definitions or interpretations exist.
14+
This open-access wiki is designed to help power system professionals, researchers, and students quickly find clear, concise definitions of key terms and acronyms in the industry.
15+
Whenever a concept has multiple interpretations—whether in academic papers, technical standards, or industry reports—our goal is to present relevant definitions side by side, with citations to the original sources.
