Publication number: 20060018068Abstract: Respective contact terminals in respective arc-suppressing spaces of respective breakers are opened at a voltage zero point of any phase of three phases, simultaneously among the three phases. If current breaking is carried out for the three phases at the same time, when the breakers of the three phases are opened, the residual magnetic levels of the respective phases of a transformer can be controlled so that the residual magnetic flux level of the phase opened at the voltage zero point is maximum (for example, ?2 K or +2 K) and the residual magnetic flux level of the other two phases are opposite in polarity to the residual magnetic flux level of the phase concerned and equal to substantially the same residual magnetic flux (for example, +K and +K or ?K and ?K) which is equal to about one half of the residual magnetic flux level of the phase concerned.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 27, 2005Publication date: January 26, 2006Applicant: TMT&D CorporationInventors: Sadayuki Kinoshita, Hiroki Ito, Haruhiko Kohyama, Kenji Kamei

Patent number: 6985824Abstract: A frequency measuring device can measure the frequency of a noisy power system at high speed. The system voltage is measured at timings obtained by equally dividing one reference-wave period. Voltage vectors are calculated which have tip ends, each voltage vector consisting of a real part of a first measured voltage and an imaginary part of another voltage measured at timing 90 degrees before the first measured voltage. The length of a chord connecting tip ends of adjacent voltage vectors is calculated. A voltage root-mean-square value is calculated from voltages measured between two timings spaced from each other by the one reference-wave period. Chord lengths obtained between two timings spaced from each other by the one reference-wave period are summed. Based on the total of the chord lengths and the voltage root-mean-square value, there is calculated a phase angle between two adjacent voltage vectors, from which the system frequency is calculated.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 2004Date of Patent: January 10, 2006Assignee: TMT & D CorporationInventor: Kempei Seki
