  • Patent number: 8207812
    Abstract: A signal isolating transformer may be arranged such that a first coil of the signal isolating transformer is located in a medium voltage compartment and a second coil of the signal isolating transformer is located external to the medium voltage compartment. The transformer spans an opening defined by a grounded wall to isolate faults in the medium voltage compartment.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7599818
    Abstract: A method of monitoring a power delivery system includes receiving a gating signal packet from a power cell or other component of the power delivery system. The received packet includes bits that correspond to the status of one or more devices within the component. The packet also includes one or more bits that contain a subset of stored data that was retrieved from a component memory. Optionally, the method also may include repeating the receiving until multiple gating signal packets are received. The multiple gating signal packets collectively contain the stored data, so that the subsets of the data point may be assembled into the stored data. Optionally, the one or more bits that contain a subset of stored data may be mode bits of the gating signal packet.
