  • Publication number: 20250277840
    Abstract: In an embodiment, an electronic circuit includes: one or more input terminals configured to receive measurement data; and a controller configured to: determine a first harmonic current based on a first current flowing through a first circuit coupled to a line node, where the measurement data includes first current data indicative of the first current, determine a filter harmonic current based on a filter current flowing through an AC filter coupled to the line node, where the measurement data includes filter current data indicative of the filter current, and generate a first flag indicative of failure, degradation or malfunction of a first capacitor or capacitor bank based on the first harmonic current and the filter harmonic current, where the AC filter includes the first capacitor or capacitor bank.

  • Patent number: 12388263
    Abstract: Power systems, such as transmission systems, may comprise a series capacitor bank (SCB) to provide series compensation on a power line. The SCB may be electrically inserted into the power line or bypassed according to commands sent by remote systems. Such commands may be compromised in a cyberattack to cause deteriorated conditions and instability in the power system. Thus, according to an embodiment, a protection layer is provided in an SCB station to intercept commands prior to execution, assess the consistency of the commands with a physical state of the power system, and either allow or block the commands based on the assessment, to thereby protect the SCB from cyberattacks.

  • Patent number: 6242375
    Abstract: Dielectric ceramic compositions for microwave application which are expressed as (1-x)ZnNb2O6- xTiO2 and designed with mole fractions of TiO2 (x=0.2 to 0.8). CuO of 0.5 to 12.0 % by weight of the total weight of the compositions is added to the compositions. At least one additive oxide of 0.05 to 5.0% by weight of the total weight among V2O5, Sb2O5, Bi2O3, B2O3, NiO, WO3, AgNO3, ZnO, and MgO is added to the compositions. They have good sintering and dielectric characteristics and made through simple manufacturing processes, and lower the production costs.
