Patent number: 10948551Abstract: A fault monitoring system detects connectivity faults in a device control centre. The fault monitoring system includes, for the or each control section, at least a first pair of temperature sensors adapted to detect the temperature of a first pair of terminals (TL1-IN), (TL1-OUT). The system includes a processor configured to receive the detected temperatures, calculate an IN-OUT difference, the IN-OUT difference being a difference between the temperatures of the first pair of terminals (?TL1), compare the calculated IN-OUT difference with a predetermined threshold value (?T*L1), whereby a calculated difference IN-OUT (?TL1), greater than the predetermined threshold value (?T*L1), is indicative of a connectivity fault at one of the first pair of terminals, and to generate at least one output signal based on the results of the comparison.Type: GrantFiled: April 6, 2017Date of Patent: March 16, 2021Assignee: QHi Group LimitedInventors: Daniel Thomas, Ross Kennedy, John Hope

Patent number: 9733285Abstract: A load calculation device for determining the maximum electrical load that can be applied to an electrical circuit includes determines the temperature differential (?T) between a section of the electrical circuit and the ambient air temperature in which the section of the electrical circuit resides. The actual electrical load applied to the electrical circuit is also determined as is the design load of the electrical circuit. The maximum electrical load that can be applied to the electrical circuit is then determined based on the temperature differential and the electrical load applied to the electrical circuit and the circuit designed load. The load calculation device may be applied to an electrical joint and may be used to calculate the maximum temperature differential allowed for a given current to be applied at the electrical joint. This is particularly beneficial in connection with detecting and preventing electrical joint failure.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2012Date of Patent: August 15, 2017Assignee: QHI Group Inc.Inventors: Ross Kennedy, John Hope

Publication number: 20040047121Abstract: An apparatus for hardening a computer against potential extortion or remote reading of data. It consists of an enclosure that can be adapted to fit any commercially available off-the-shelf computer product (Servers and Personal Computer Towers), and a set of filters & shielding to transfer the energy from the power cord and other peripherals to the computer. All of the energy, EMI, RFI, and magnetic fields within the computer are kept there. Any potential energy, EMI, RFI, or HERF blasts from outside the computer are kept there. The invention allows an existing computer product to be mounted inside the enclosure, adequately supported and shielded to meet all hardening requirements to prevent magnetic or electronic energy from entering or leaving the computer.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 8, 2003Publication date: March 11, 2004Inventor: John Hope
