ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT MANAGEMENT
Techniques are described for electrical equipment management. Embodiments include receiving and validating a login request from a user. Receiving a selection of an order of an electrical equipment system to assemble and, in response, retrieving and providing a plurality of instructions. Performing an iterative assembly process to manage the assembly of the electrical equipment system by the user, wherein the iterative assembly process comprises iterating through the plurality of instructions for assembling the electrical equipment. Recording digital artifacts of the electrical equipment system during performance of the plurality instructions as part of the iterative assembly process and upon determining that compliance has been achieved for the assembled electrical equipment system based on the recorded digital artifacts satisfying a predefined compliance standard, record a final assembly report for the electrical equipment system. Embodiments include storing the final assembly report together with a unique identifier corresponding to the assembled electrical equipment system.
MAGNETIC ABSORBING GUIDE RAIL COMPONENT AND LIGHTING SYSTEM
The present disclosure provides a magnetic absorbing guide rail component and a lighting system. The magnetic absorbing guide rail component includes a strip rail, an insulating member, a pair of strip electrodes, a magnetic device, and a magnet. This disclosure adopts an aluminum profile as a strip rail, the strip rail has a relatively small width, and two strip electrodes are embedded in the insulating member.
ADAPTER FOR USE IN A TRACK LIGHTING SYSTEM, AND LIGHTING ARRANGEMENT
An adapter for use in a track lighting system is designed to be inserted into a track. The track has an electrical conductor means with conductors, the adapter has contact elements, and when the adapter is in an inserted state, contact can be made with the conductors by means of the contact elements. The contact elements can be moved into a contacting position, in which they protrude from the adapter so that they can be connected to the conductors, and into a non-contacting position, in which the adapter can be retracted into or removed from the track. The movement of the contact elements between the contacting position and the non-contacting position can be brought about by an operator by means of a moveably arranged actuating element of the adapter.
Busbar connection with side band communications
A busbar connector includes an insulator body, a positive power delivery contact, a negative power delivery contact, and a side band contact. The insulator body has first prong and a second prong oriented in a longitudinal direction and proximate one another with a gap therebetween. The positive power delivery contact is on a first inner surface of the first prong adjacent the gap, and the negative power delivery contact is on a second inner surface of the second prong adjacent the gap. The side band contact is positioned on the insulator body and insulated from the positive power delivery contact and the negative power delivery contact by the insulator body.
Power supply rail system
A power supply rail includes a groove extending in a first direction in a base portion and having an opening on a one-end side in a second direction, a conductive portion provided at a bottom surface of the groove, and a first recess formed on a first side wall of the groove. A power supply terminal is attachable/detachable into/from the groove, and includes terminal portions formed on an other-end side in the second direction of a body portion, a lead-wire portion from the terminal portions and elastic portions provided on a first side surface of the body portion. The elastic portions are latched in contact with an inside of the first recess of the power supply rail, and the terminal portions contact with the conductive portion.
Power distribution system
A power distribution system includes a track having a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and a longitudinal axis extending through the first and second ends. The track defines a channel extending along the longitudinal axis. A plurality of power cables is positioned within the channel. The power distribution system further includes an electrical hub having a body coupled to the second end of the track. A plurality of wafers is supported by the body and stacked on top of each other to define a set of terminals. The set of terminals is electrically connected to the plurality of power cables. A power receptacle is supported by the body and electrically connected to the plurality of wafers.
Control module of or for a light fitting system and related methods
A light fitting control module able to receive a coupler of a light fitting that is also able connect to an electrically power track. The light fitting is able to be supported and/or powered by the track. The control module comprises a first coupler able to connect with the supporting power track and a second coupler able to connect to the coupler of said light fitting to support and electrically connect said light fitting with the electrically powered track. The control module is configured and adapted to respond to remote command to control at least one degree of freedom of operation the lighting fitting.
Power-data distribution system, fittings, and devices
Various embodiments of a power-data distribution system, fittings, and devices are disclosed. In one embodiment, a power-data system comprises: an overhead power distribution system, including: a strut, a conductor wire within the strut, and an upper fitting engagement ledge; and a power-data device, including: a combined power and network output fitter mechanically engaged to the strut, the fitter including a fitter engagement element mechanically engaged to the upper fitting engagement ledge, the fitter including a conductor element able to move into the fitter and having at least one biasing element within the fitter; a powerline chipset, the powerline chipset including a powerline chipset and to an ethernet port; a data receiving device/power receiving device, the data receiving device/power receiving device including an ethernet port; and the ethernet port of the powerline chipset and the ethernet port of the data receiving device/power receiving device being connected by a transmission cable.
CONNECTORS FOR SMART WINDOWS
This disclosure provides connectors for smart windows. A smart window may incorporate an optically switchable pane. In one aspect, a window unit includes an insulated glass unit including an optically switchable pane. A wire assembly may be attached to the edge of the insulated glass unit and may include wires in electrical communication with electrodes of the optically switchable pane. A floating connector may be attached to a distal end of the wire assembly. The floating connector may include a flange and a nose, with two holes in the flange for affixing the floating connector to a first frame. The nose may include a terminal face that present two exposed contacts of opposite polarity. Pre-wired spacers improve fabrication efficiency and seal integrity of insulated glass units. Electrical connection systems include those embedded in the secondary seal of the insulated glass unit.
Power connector for electronic equipment supported by a rack assembly
An electronic system includes a rack assembly including a first rail and a second rail defining a first width therebetween and a chassis that supports electronic components and is insertable between the first rail and the second rail. The chassis includes a first side and a second side defining a second width therebetween that is less than the first width. The electronic system further includes a power connector coupled to the chassis and movable between a first position and a second position.
