Disclosed is a reactance-injecting module used to balance the currents among the phases of polyphase electric power transmission lines or to manage power flow among alternate paths, where the reactance-injecting module has high-speed, dedicated communication links to enable the immediate removal of injected reactance from all phases of a phase balancing cluster when a fault is detected on any one of the multiple phases. The reactance-injecting module may communicate information on a detected fault to the other reactance-injecting modules of the phase balancing cluster within 10 microseconds after the fault is detected to allow the phase balancing cluster to eliminate injected reactance from all phases within 1 millisecond after the fault is detected. This provides extremely fast neutralization of injected reactance to minimize interference with fault localization analyses.

Safety power disconnection for remote power distribution in power distribution systems is disclosed. The power distribution system includes one or more power distribution circuits each configured to remotely distribute power from a power source over current carrying power conductors to remote units to provide power for remote unit operations. A remote unit is configured to decouple power from the power conductors thereby disconnecting the load of the remote unit from the power distribution system. A current measurement circuit in the power distribution system measures current flowing on the power conductors and provides a current measurement to the controller circuit. The controller circuit is configured to disconnect the power source from the power conductors for safety reasons in response to detecting a current from the power source in excess of a threshold current level indicating a load.

The induction memory cell includes an electronic circuit that can internally control the on or off state of a magnetic field within a wireless power transmission circuit. The induction memory cell can control external devices. When the induction memory cell is used in an array it can be programmed to retain binary information such as on as a binary digit of one or off as a binary digit of zero. The induction memory cell on or off state can be controlled via a brief emission of laser light, wireless induction from another induction memory cell or mechanical switch. Each photo resistor for controlling the on or off state is enclosed in a short tube with one opening for each tube that restricts some ambient light but also allows laser light to reach each photo resistor.
