According to the present disclosure, an optoelectronic assembly is disclosed with at least one optoelectronic component, and a sensor circuit. The sensor circuit includes at least one energy supply circuit and an ascertainment circuit having at least one energy storage unit and a detection unit. The ascertainment circuit and the at least one optoelectronic component are electrically connected to one another in parallel. The at least one energy supply circuit is configured to supply electrical energy to the at least one optoelectronic component and the energy storage unit. The energy stored in the energy storage unit is supplied independently of the electrical energy supplied to the at least one optoelectronic component. The ascertainment circuit is configured such that the detection unit detects a change of the electrical energy stored in the energy storage unit depending on a change of the energy stored in the at least one optoelectronic component.

A rapid pressure rise detection and management system that detects internal pressure changes in a transformer. The rapid pressure rise detection and management system communicates with one or more pressure sensors attached to a tank of the transformer and measures the rate of pressure change versus time. The rapid pressure rise detection and management system then compares this rate of pressure change against a set of parameters to determine if this pressure change is an internal fault requiring the transformer to be taken offline or external fault to be ignored. This rapid pressure rise detection and management system may be a standalone device or work with other monitoring/controlling equipment to expand its sensing and management capabilities.

A system to detect a ground fault at the output of an inverter section prior to powering up a motor drive system is disclosed. A low voltage power supply is connected to the DC bus prior to connecting the input power source to the rectifier section. If a ground fault exists, the voltage potential on the DC bus causes conduction through one of the freewheeling diodes connected in parallel to the power switching device on the output of the inverter section. A fault detection circuit generates a signal corresponding to the presence of the low Voltage potential when the low voltage is applied to the DC bus. If a ground fault is present at the output of one of the inverter sections, the motor drive system prevents the AC voltage from being applied to the rectifier section.

A method for detecting and locating faulty line on the distribution network circuit based on full waveform information, which uses the current data on the fault occurrence and whole-process operation of the compensation device to effectively solve such common problems as low fault current, poor reliability and low sensitivity in case of single-phase grounding fault to the low-current system through precise GPS synchronization. It improves the sensitivity and reliability of the grounding fault detection, which does not interfere with the system and is applicable to high-resistance grounding.

In particular, a method for detecting welding of each relay such as a main relay, a precharge relay or a heater relay and a method for detecting a fault of a battery heating system such as a short circuit, disconnection or damage of each heater are provided by sensing a voltage. In the methods, the on/off state of the heater relay and the high voltage relays is controlled through a predetermined process to detect a fault of the heater relay or the high voltage relay, and welding of the heater relay or the high voltage relay is then detected from a voltage for fault detection which is sensed through a voltage sensing circuit unit for fault detection.

A method for identifying a faulty component in a plasma tool is described. The method includes accessing a measurement of a parameter received from a frequency generator and measurement device. The measurement is generated based on a plurality of radio frequency (RF) signals that are provided to a portion of a plasma tool. The RF signals have one or more ranges of frequencies. The method further includes determining whether the parameter indicates an error, which indicates a fault in the portion of the plasma tool. The method includes identifying limits of the frequencies in which the error occurs and identifying based on the limits of the frequencies in which the error occurs one or more components of the portion of the plasma tool creating the error.
