Three Phase Surge Protection Device
A three phase surge protection device is disclosed. In an embodiment a device include a stack comprising a first varistor, a second varistor and a third varistor, wherein the varistors are electrically connected to form a circuit and a first thermal disconnect configured to interrupt the circuit when a temperature of the first thermal disconnect exceeds a predefined temperature.
Circuit board arrangement having electrical leads for holding an electrical fuse
The invention relates to a circuit board arrangement for electrical separation of leads, comprising a fuse board configured to hold an electrical fuse, wherein the fuse board has electrical leads and openings formed between adjacent electrical leads; and comprising an insulating member configured to receive the fuse board, wherein the insulating member has separators, wherein the separators are configured to insert into the openings and electrically separate the leads.
Electrical connection box with dark current circuit connection/disconnection structure
Provided is an electrical connection box that is equipped with a newly constructed dark current circuit connection/disconnection mechanism that can be used to change circuits of the dark current circuit connection/disconnection mechanism and improve versatility. A conduction member holder has a conduction member holding portion that extends spanning over a plurality of cavities that are provided in a case. A conduction member includes: a first conduction member that is connected to a connection terminal of a dark current circuit housed in one of the cavities; and a second conduction member that is connected simultaneously to the connection terminal of the dark current circuits housed in one of the cavities and a connection terminal of another circuit housed in another cavity. The first conduction member or the second conduction member that is selected according to a required circuit configuration is mounted in the conduction member holding portion.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR A DISCONNECT SWITCH ASSEMBLY HAVING A REVERSIBLE FUSE SUPPORT BLOCK
A reversible fuse support block includes a molding, a terminal, and a fuser interface. The molding may be installed within a housing in a first position and a second position, wherein the second position is rotated 180 degrees relative to the first position. The terminal couples to the molding and includes a plurality of apertures disposed in a pattern. The fuse interface receives a first end of a fuse. The fuse interface couples to the terminal in a first arrangement and a second arrangement such that when the fuse interface is installed in the first arrangement and the molding is installed in the first position, the fuse interface is disposed in substantially the same position relative to a corresponding fuse interface on a fuse support block as when the fuse interface is installed in the second arrangement and the molding is installed in the second position.

Methods, systems, and apparatuses for transferring power and analysis
Methods, systems, and apparatuses are described for transferring power. A power transfer device may be configured to securely fit in a fuse block, fuse holder, and/or the like. The power transfer device may transfer power from a source to a load connected to the fuse block, fuse holder, and/or the like, while also isolating the power to prevent the power from backfeeding to the source. The power transfer device may be used to perform testing, measurements, and/or analysis (e.g., voltage measurements, power measurements, frequency analysis, system impedance testing, etc.).
Manual disconnect with connector position assurance assembly
A manual disconnect for an electric circuit includes a base with primary terminals and an interlock connector. A plug assembly has fuse terminals and an interlock resistor assembly. The plug assembly is adapted to be moved relative to the base between a disconnected position, a primary circuit engaged position, and an interlock position. The plug assembly is moved linearly and rotationally relative to the base when moving between these positions. The manual disconnect also includes a connector position assurance assembly. The connector position assurance assembly includes a connector position assurance button that is movable relative to the plug assembly. The connector position assurance button can be moved between a pre-lock position and an assurance position. When located in the assurance position, the connector position assurance assembly prevents the plug assembly from rotating relative to the base.
CIRCUIT BOARD ARRANGEMENT HAVING ELECTRICAL LEADS FOR HOLDING AN ELECTRICAL FUSE
The invention relates to a circuit board arrangement for electrical separation of leads, comprising a fuse board configured to hold an electrical fuse, wherein the fuse board has electrical leads and openings formed between adjacent electrical leads; and comprising an insulating member configured to receive the fuse board, wherein the insulating member has separators, wherein the separators are configured to insert into the openings and electrically separate the leads
POWER CONNECTOR HAVING AN EMI ENCLOSURE
A power connector includes a housing having a front wall including a socket configured to receive a power plug. The power connector includes an electrical component held by the housing being electrically connected to a power contact in the socket. The electrical component is a heat generating component. The power connector includes an EMI enclosure coupled to the housing. The EMI enclosure has walls defining a chamber. The housing, power contacts, and electrical component are received in the chamber. The walls of the EMI enclosure provide EMI shielding for the electrical component. The EMI enclosure includes a flap extending from a wall of the EMI enclosure into the chamber having a flap thermal interface thermally coupled to the electrical component to dissipate heat from the electrical component.
