The pole attachable enclosure provides a secure, tamper resistant enclosure for electronic and support equipment in both new and retrofit installations to improve serviceability and protect investment.
Abstract:
A joystick assembly is disclosed. In embodiments, the joystick controls a boom and aids in insulating a user from potential electric shock. Handle utilized by the operator may be made of, or at least one surface coated or covered in, material highly-resistant to electric current. The highly-resistant material may also extend to other components such as, a connecting rod, and a mounting base. The highly-resistant components may separate the operator from electrically charged components. As well as separating the operator from potentially electrically charged components, the rod may be received at the base by force measuring sensors, or strain measuring sensors may be attached to the rod. This allows the handle and rod to be stationary and, in embodiments, rigid, and only the applied force to be measured, thus decreasing the number of components needed in the assembly.
Abstract:
A power feeding unit includes: an electrode array including a plurality of power feeding electrodes arranged side by side; a power feeding section configured to supply power to a power receiving unit via the electrode array; and a setting section configured to set a power feeding condition for each of the power feeding electrodes.
Abstract:
A system having electrical equipment integrated on a structure is provided. The system includes at least one electrical equipment located at a spaced apart relationship and mounted on at least one structure. A method is provided for isolation of electrical equipment. The method includes opening and closing a contact by engaging or disengaging one or more terminals of the electrical equipment correspondingly with a supply line or a distribution line by a mechanism for isolation. The mechanism can be a handle or a moving mechanism which is associated with a movement in a vertical direction or horizontal direction or with a movement that provides isolation.
Abstract:
A bracket full automatically securing a transformer to a utility pole, wherein the bracket includes an elongated base attached to the utility pole, a multi-linked belt for attaching the base to the utility pole, and a keeper pivotally connected to the base for automatically engaging a carrier connected to the transformer when said carrier is positioned on said keeper. The bracket further includes means for automatically locking the keeper in a closed position about said carrier and means for automatically anchoring a lower portion of the transformer to the base concurrent with the engagement of the carrier by the keeper.
Abstract:
A support bracket apparatus for mounting a transformer rack or other device on a vertical support member such as a wooden pole, is disclosed. The support bracket apparatus includes a pair of hanger members fastened to the opposite sides of the pole by an adjustable fastening means which adjusts the spacing between the hanger members to accommodate different pole diameters. When used to support an electrical transformer rack, a pair of hanger members is employed at each end of the rack which have lower leg portions in engagement with a pair of mounting arms extending from the rack to support the weight of the rack and transformers on such hangers. The adjustable fastening means preferably includes a plurality of threaded sleeves which extend outwardly from an upper leg of the hanger member and threaded collars which engage the projections so that changing the rotational position of the collar adjusts the spacing between the two hangers. Mounting bolts extending through the sleeves and holes in the support poles are attached by nuts to the mounting arms of the transformer rack to mount the assembly on such poles. Alternatively, the threaded sleeves and collars may be replaced by shims on the mounting bolts to adjust the spacing between the hangers. The support rack is in the form of a hollow box beam made of laminated wood members having a concave curved notch in each end closed by a sheet metal cover to provide the two mounting arms on opposite sides of the pole.
Abstract:
A support rack for mounting at least one electrical current transformer upon an electrical utility pole, including a bracket for each current transformer, a hollow arm connecting each bracket to a hollow junction box having a depending conduit connection to an electrical meter mounted on the same pole, so that one set of wires from the current transformers are led through the arms and the junctions box to the meter at a substantially lower secondary voltage than the secondary wires leading from the current transformers to the customer service lines.
Abstract:
A high-voltage overhead electric transmission line extends from a first electrical substation to a second electrical substation and includes at least one “T” junction that forms a joint with three sections A first section and a second section allow connection between the first and the second electrical substations. A third section allows connection to the high-voltage overhead electric transmission line of a user or a third electrical substation or primary substation. The at least one “T” junction has a first switchgear unit configured to allow grid reconfigurations and installed on the first section, and a second switchgear unit configured to allow grid reconfigurations and installed on the second section. Each switchgear unit has a plurality of switchgear unit poles. Each switchgear unit pole is associated with a respective phase of the high-voltage overhead electric transmission line and has a line circuit breaker and at least one line disconnector.
Abstract:
A modular, space-efficient support structure mounts multiple electrical devices. The structure is modular to allow for subsequent addition and removal of electrical devices by adding and removing primary structural elements coupled for structural efficiency. The structure is deployable in many locations without reconfiguration and has reduced dependence on local site conditions. The structure uses non-permanent construction methods to facilitate rapid assembly, disassembly, re-deployment and re-use of components. Multiple electrical devices such as transformers are mounted at elevation on device mounting columns. The electrical devices are interconnected to each other in parallel or series with connectors mounted on the top portion of the device to allow maintenance clearance underneath. The arrangement of the electrical devices maximizes the density of the devices while maintaining vertical, lateral and radial safety clearances. The electrical devices are arranged in a symmetrical fashion around the primary structural element for symmetrical load distribution.
