  • Patent number: 10951026
    Abstract: A power distribution apparatus includes a power source terminal, a power-distributing module, at least a power distribution module, an input detection unit, at least an output detection unit and a management unit. The power source terminal receives an input power. The power-distributing module converts the input power into an output power. Each of the power distribution modules includes a plurality of output ports. The power distribution module receives the output power to output the output power through the output ports. The input detection unit detects the input power to generate a set of input information. The output detection unit detects the output power to generate at least a set of output information correspondingly. According to the input information or the output information, the management unit controls the output ports to be turned on or off correspondingly.

  • Patent number: 10579085
    Abstract: A power distribution unit and a fault detecting method applied in the power distribution unit are disclosed herein. The power distribution unit includes an input terminal, an insulation fault detection circuit and a processing circuit. The input terminal is electrically coupled to a positive power line and a negative power line, and configured to receive a high voltage direct current (HVDC) voltage. The insulation fault detection circuit is configured to detect an insulation resistance value between a ground terminal and the positive power line or the negative power line. The processing circuit is configured to output a warning signal according to the insulation resistance value.

  • Patent number: 10313140
    Abstract: A power distribution system capable of network-connecting relay is provided. Power distribution units of the power distribution system execute a master-node-arbitrating process to generate an arbitration result, and respectively switch to a master node mode for being a master node or a slave node mode for being a slave node according to the arbitration result. When being the master node, a power distribution unit receives a monitor command from a remote management device via an external network, and transfers it to the corresponded slave node(s). When being the slave node, a power distribution unit executes the monitor command received from the master node. Therefore, the complexity of building system and the cost of building system can be effectively reduced, and network-connecting relay service can be provided.

  • Publication number: 20180138703
    Abstract: A power distribution unit is disclosed. The power distribution unit comprises a plurality of input assemblies respectively connected to a plurality of power sources for inputting power, a plurality of output assemblies for outputting processed power, a power distributing module for transmitting the power, and a power switch module. The power switch module switches to connect with one of the input assemblies to conduct the power source connected to the input assembly with the connected output assembly (s), and switches to connect with another input assembly to conduct another power source connected to the input assembly with the connected output assembly (s) when determining that a switching condition is satisfied. The present disclosed example can effectively save the space of arranging the power switcher, and enhance convenience of installation via integrating the power switch module into the power distribution unit.
