Gas monitoring system for gas-insulated switchgears

A gas monitoring system includes a gas-insulated switchgear, wherein the gas-insulated switch gear has at least two separated chambers which are filled with an insulating gas surrounding high or medium voltage components. A first sensor is connected to the first chamber and a second sensor is connected to the second chamber, both sensors adapted to measure a physical property of the insulating gas in their respective chambers over time. A computer unit is adapted to calculate from the two sensor measurements a leakage rate of the insulating gas in one of the two chambers using an adaptive filter, in particular a Wiener filter.

Distribution panel

Provided is a distribution panel. The distribution panel includes a main busbar compartment in which a main busbar is provided and which is provided as an independent space and an arc duct provided at a rear side of the main busbar compartment to discharge an arc generated in the main busbar compartment. The main busbar compartment includes a communication hole defied in one surface of the main busbar to allow the main busbar compartment to communicate with the arc duct and a relief device rotatably provided on one side of the communication hole to open or close the communication hole. The relief device is bendable in multi stages. Thus, the arc may be effectively discharged while reducing a size of the distribution panel.

Infrared Thermal Monitoring System for Industrial Application
20190310137 · 2019-10-10 ·

A thermal monitoring system includes thermal monitoring devices that generate sensor data including thermal images depicting monitored elements (e.g. of an electrical switchgear system). The sensor data for all monitoring devices installed at a local deployment is collected by a gateway device, and relevant data from multiple local deployments is further aggregated by a cloud management system for further analysis. New event triggering rules determining how the thermal monitoring devices filter or record the sensor data are generated based on the aggregated data during a continuous learning process. The system detects patterns in the sensor data for the monitoring devices and/or local deployments as a whole and tracks deviations from these patterns, improving the accuracy of the event detection over time.

CIRCUIT BREAKER INCLUDING ACTIVE ARC CONTROL FEATURES
20190287750 · 2019-09-19 ·

A circuit breaker includes an interrupter configured to selectively prevent a flow of electrical current through the circuit breaker, and an assembly. The assembly includes a housing, an interrupter mechanism, and an arc protection mechanism. The housing includes an opening configured to channel an arc fault discharge generated during an arc fault into the housing. The interrupter mechanism is coupled to the housing and the interrupter, and is configured to move the interrupter between a first position and a second position, wherein the first position prevents a flow of electrical current through the circuit breaker and the second position permits a flow of electrical current through the circuit breaker. The arc protection mechanism is within the housing and is configured to receive the arc fault discharge through the housing and to cause the interrupter to move to the first position in response to the arc fault discharge.
