665.2 Definitions.
Converting Device.
That part of the heating equipment that converts input mechanical or electrical energy to the voltage, current, and frequency used for the heating applicator. A converting device consists of equipment using mains line frequency, all static multipliers, oscillator-type units using vacuum tubes, inverters using solid-state devices, or motor generator equipment. [ROP 12?153]

5 Statement of Problem and Substantiation.

Mains frequency is British English. Line frequency is American English. Line frequency is used in several places in the Code. For instance:

665.1 Scope. This article covers the construction and installation of dielectric heating, induction heating, induction melting, and induction welding equipment and accessories for industrial and scientific applications. Medical or dental applications, appliances, or line frequency pipeline and vessel heating are not covered in this article.

Use the same name for the same thing to reduce confusion.
