  • Patent number: 10932388
    Abstract: A modular edge power system is provided. The modular edge power system includes a housing having a rack adapted to mount compute devices and a direct current power bus within the housing. Multiple power distribution units are adapted to be removably coupled to the direct current power bus at a position within the housing and outside of the rack. Each power distribution unit is configured to distribute electrical power received from the direct current power bus to one or more compute devices mounted in the rack. Each power distribution unit may convert the electrical power from a first power level to a second power level.

  • Patent number: 10374422
    Abstract: A boost circuit compensator module enclosure is provided. The boost circuit compensator module enclosure includes an outer housing and a connection assembly. The outer housing includes a first end and a second end, the first end spaced apart from the second end along a first direction, wherein the second end defines a plane oriented at an angle relative to the first direction, and wherein the outer housing is configured to receive a plurality of boost circuit compensator modules. The connection assembly is coupled to the outer housing proximate the second end and includes at least one row. The at least one row includes a plurality of terminal bases, each terminal base electrically coupleable between a respective boost circuit compensator module and a plurality of transmission lines. Each terminal base includes two conductor receptacles and a longitudinal axis oriented obliquely relative to the plane defined by the second end.
