摘要:
A tap changing assembly for power transformers having vacuum interrupters each of which is associated with a radio interrogated surface wave sensor capable of detecting whether the respective vacuum interrupter opens circuit in a timely manner. The sensors are interrogated by an interrogating unit transmitting high-frequency signals to the sensors and associated with a monitoring circuit responsive to signals received by the interrogating unit for signalling the status of the vacuum interrupter.
摘要:
An electronic device for compensating voltage fluctuations in an electrical power distribution circuit controls operation of a transformer of the type having a TCUL voltage regulator by automatically calculating the voltage bandwidth of the transformer based upon a stored value for peak current in the distribution circuit. The peak current value is automatically updated when the actual current in the circuit exceeds the stored peak current value for a predetermined sustained period of time indicating a change in overall loading patterns in the circuit but, regardless of increases in actual current in the distribution circuit, the apparatus prevents the output voltage from exceeding a preset absolute maximum.

An impressed current cathodic protection apparatus has an electromechanically actuated variable transformer providing a variable output voltage and shunt-connected current monitors to monitor the impressed current and to vary the transformer turns ratio to maintain the impressed current within a predetermined range of values.
摘要:
A voltage regulating relay in which the dead-band voltage width is determined by the amplification of the difference or error signal supplied to a comparator which maintains constant upper and constant lower comparing voltages.
摘要:
The disclosure relates to voltage regulators and more specially voltage regulators including error detection and correction mechanisms. Example embodiments include a voltage regulator comprising: an input arranged to receive a trim signal used to specify a target voltage at an output of the regulator; a comparator arranged to compare a voltage derived from the trim signal to the voltage at the output of the regulator; a filter arranged to filter an output of the comparator; a checksum module comprising first and second portions arranged to calculate first and second checksums respectively from a plurality of states associated with the voltage regulator and to provide an error signal equal to the difference between the first and second checksums; and an adjustment module arranged to receive the error signal and adjust one or more of the plurality of states if the error signal is non-zero.
