[Milsurplus] Even Worse

[Albert LaFrance]

Yes, it's done with a specialized tap-changing transformer called a Phase
Angle Regulator.  This paper describes how they're used:

Do power companies share power back and forth according to peak periods by
changing the phase slightly?  Where did i come up with this idea?  I really
don't remember.

The power companies already do that and is able to compare phasors 
across the grid.  Check out NASPI, the North American SynchroPhasor 
Initiative.

I set up a PMU (Phasor Measurement Unit) at my plant already, it uses 
GPS for time sync.
