Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure involve a system and method for load balancing a string of jars. The temperature and voltage of each jar is measured and a target voltage for the jar is set based on the measured temperature. A current is supplied to the jar in order to maintain, increase, or decrease the jar's voltage.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a branch circuit monitoring (BCM) system that may include a first collector board with a first plurality of connector ports connected to a first plurality of branch circuits, and a second collector board with a second plurality of connector ports connected to a second plurality of branch circuits. Each of the first and second plurality of connector ports may receive a respective first and second plurality of connector plugs configured to be receivable in the respective first and second plurality connector ports. The first collector board may be coupled to an aggregator board such that the first plurality of current sensors may report branch circuit measurements to the aggregator board. The plugs may be connected to associated leads connected to respective first plurality and second plurality of current sensors. The first board and the second board may be in communication using a bus protocol.

Abstract: A system capable of identifying various possible technical malfunctions with an uninterruptible power supply system by detecting AC ripple on a power bus of the UPS system. A battery monitor is positioned on the terminal posts of one or more batteries of the UPS system. The monitor, since it is connected with the power bus, is configured to measure and/or record AC ripple on the power bus. At the monitor or by way of communicating the AC ripple to a remote database and server, excessive ripple changes may generate an alert when such changes exceed a threshold or may be viewed through a graphical user interface.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for monitoring at least one battery condition. An ac signal is applied to a battery. A difference between a signal output from the battery and a threshold determines a battery condition. The determined battery condition is transmitted remotely from the battery location either wirelessly or through a network to controller and/or is visibly displayed at the battery location.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for monitoring at least one battery. A reference ramp voltage signal is applied to a battery. A difference between a measurement ramp voltage signal output from the battery and the reference signal is compared with a threshold to determine battery condition. The determined battery condition can be transmitted remotely from the battery location.
