In some embodiments, a communication device configured to receive power and communicate data signals via a differential pair of conductors is provided. The communication device comprises circuitry configured to generate or receive a common mode voltage via the differential pair; and at least one of: circuitry configured to, in response to detecting an edge of an incoming digital signal via an input conductor, transmit an outgoing pair of pulses based on the detected edge via the differential pair; or circuitry configured to detect an incoming pair of pulses via the differential pair and adjust a signal transmitted via an output conductor indicating a logical value based on the incoming pair of pulses.

A system and method for improving electrical efficiency in a system with three-phase electrical current is disclosed. The system includes components used to balance the currents between the phases and components used to tune components to minimize the lag between current and voltage for each of the phases for each of the three phase loads in a system with three phase power supplied and three phase loads.
