A method for analyzing power quality events in an electrical system includes processing electrical measurement data from or derived from energy-related signals captured by at least one metering device in the electrical system to generate at least one dynamic tolerance curve. Each dynamic tolerance curve of the at least one dynamic tolerance curve characterizes a response characteristic of the electrical system at a respective metering point in the electrical system. The method also includes analyzing the at least one dynamic tolerance curve to identify special cases which require further evaluation(s)/clarification to be discernable and/or actionable. The at least one dynamic tolerance curve may be regenerated or updated, and/or new or additional dynamic tolerance curves may be generated, to provide the further clarification. One or more actions affecting at least one component in the electrical system may be performed in response to an analysis of the curve(s).

A protective device protects an LC filter in a vehicle. The vehicle includes a first vehicle-mounted electric device and a second vehicle-mounted electric device. The first vehicle-mounted electric device includes a first power converter. The second vehicle-mounted electric device includes a second power converter and shares a power supply with the first vehicle-mounted electric device. The LC filter is arranged between the first power converter and the power supply. The LC filter is configured such that the resonance frequency band of the LC filter can be changed. The resonance frequency band of the LC filter is changed based on a ripple amount in a current flowing in the LC filter.

An over-voltage protection circuit for executing an over-voltage protection for a LED module of an electronic device. The over-voltage protection circuit includes a control unit and an over-voltage detection module, a trigger module and an adjustment module. The LED module includes a positive input port. The over-voltage detection module detects a voltage of the positive input port of the LED module and produce a detection voltage proportional to the voltage of the positive input port. The control unit controls the LED module to work or do not work according to the detection voltage. The trigger module produces corresponding trigger signals according to a 2D signal or a 3D signal output by a 2D/3D signal port. The adjustment module adjusts the proportion between the detection voltage and the voltage of the positive input port according to the trigger signal.
