Abstract: A switch is connected between an AC power supply and a load. A controller detects an abnormality of the AC power supply by detecting an instantaneous value of a three-phase AC voltage supplied from the AC power supply, when the switch is on. Based on an instantaneous value of the three-phase AC voltage detected at a first time and a first threshold value preset for a peak value of the three-phase AC voltage, the controller estimates a second threshold value for an instantaneous value of the three-phase AC voltage at a second time having a prescribed time difference from the first time. The controller detects the abnormality of the AC power supply by comparing the estimated second threshold value with the instantaneous value of the three-phase AC voltage detected at the second time. The controller turns off the switch when the abnormality of the AC power supply is detected.

Abstract: When an opposite direction shift for obtaining a required equivalent roll crown and a same direction shift for wear dispersion are used in combination, a difference occurs in the roll gap at both edge portions in the width direction of a rolling target material. Therefore, the difference between a work-side screw down position and a drive-side screw down position is changed so that the roll gap difference between both the edge portions in the width direction of the rolling target material is made close to zero. As a result, the distance between the work roll shafts on a work side and a drive side is changed, so that the roll gap difference at both ends in the width direction of the rolling target material approaches zero. Therefore, the wear of the work rolls can be dispersed while maintaining the equivalent roll crown.
