    Abstract: Techniques for monitoring the health of a three-phase induction motor are provided. An expected threshold value is calculated as a function of an expected ratio of current unbalance to voltage unbalance for the three-phase motor. Embodiments determine whether a measured current unbalance exceeds the expected threshold value. Responsive to the measured current unbalance exceeding the expected threshold value, a remedial action may be taken, such as generating diagnostic information or activating one or more protection operations for the three-phase induction motor.

    Abstract: Techniques for automatically configuring a computing device in a computing environment are provided. One embodiment includes determining that the computing device has been added to a computing environment and that at least one feature of the computing device is unconfigured. Device name data specifying at least two potential device identifiers for the computing device is received from a plurality of endpoint devices communicatively coupled to the computing device. A first device identifier is selected from the at least two potential device identifiers and device configuration data associated with the first device identifier is requested from a device configuration server. The at least one feature of the computing device can then be configured using the device configuration data.

    Abstract: A method is performed by a bus coupler of a subnetwork of one or more local subnetworks coupled to an overall network is provided, including performing a local discovery process for discovering and identifying one or more bus devices included in the subnetwork. The method further includes submitting an internet protocol (IP) address request to obtain an IP address for the bus coupler, receiving at the bus coupler the IP address of the bus coupler in response to the IP address assignment request, submitting a configuration request for configuration information associated with a device name for the bus coupler, receiving the configuration information in response to the configuration request, and configuring at least one feature of the bus coupler using the configuration information, wherein the device name is based on identifier(s) of the respective one or more bus devices obtained by the discovery process.

    Abstract: In accordance with an example embodiment of the invention, in an overload relay for a three-phase motor, an adjusted threshold for detected current phase unbalance is dynamically determined at which the relay will be tripped. The adjusted threshold is a function of a ratio of an average of currents in the three-phases to the rated full load current of the motor, i.e., motor load. As the motor load decreases, the adjusted current phase unbalance threshold is increased, causing the resulting trip time to increase, thereby increasing motor run time and reducing downtime.

    Abstract: An add-on adapter 110 enables a single charging port 102 of an electric vehicle charging station 100 to simultaneously charge two electric vehicles. An adapter controller 120 determines the available charging rate offered by the charging station. Electric vehicle charging handles 150A, 150B are determined to be connected to the electric vehicles. A charge sharing control circuit 300 in the adapter controller, determines modified available charging rates to be offered for simultaneously charging the electric vehicles. The modified available charging rates are based on the connection states of the electric vehicles and the available charging rate offered by the charging station. The adapter controller controls two contactors 130A, 130B to switchably connect a charging station power socket to the electric vehicle charging handles, to provide shared power at the determined modified available charging rate to the electric vehicles, for simultaneous charging.
