Abstract: Systems and methods for providing an electronics module including a raceway for mounting submodules and establishing electrical communication with said submodules. The raceway comprises a base structure and a conductive trace formed by a conductive plating process. Connection pads on the raceway are configured to receive connection nodes of the submodules for providing a continuous electrical connection between the raceway and the submodules for electrical communication and power transmission.

Abstract: An optical current monitor for detecting a current traveling through conductive material. The optical current monitor comprises a light source for emitting light at an output level; a lens configured to receive the light; Faraday material positioned near the conductive material and configured to receive light that has passed through the lens, thereby producing rotated light; a polarizer configured to polarize the rotated light; a photodetector configured to receive the rotated light and output a signal as a function of the rotated light; and a feedback system. The feedback system is configured to receive the signal from the photodetector and modify the output level of the light source based on the signal so that the signal remains at a reference level when the current is not traveling through the conductive material.
