Abstract: An apparatus and methods are disclosed for monitoring the operation of an electrical power-transfer system and detecting and handling hazardous and undesirable system states. In accordance with one embodiment, an electrical signal is injected into the electrical power-transfer system. During or after the injection of the electrical signal, an electrical property between a first sensor and a second sensor are measured to obtain a measurement. The electrical power-transfer system is determined to be in a hazardous state based on the measurement, and in response to the determination one or more actions are performed to correct the hazardous state.

Abstract: An apparatus and methods are disclosed for monitoring the operation of an electrical power-transfer system and detecting and handling hazardous and undesirable system states. In accordance with one embodiment, an electrical signal is injected into the electrical power-transfer system. During or after the injection of the electrical signal, the following are measured: (1) an electrical property between a first sensor and a second sensor to obtain a first measurement, (2) the electrical property between the second sensor and a third sensor to obtain a second measurement, and (3) the electrical property between the first sensor and the third sensor to obtain a third measurement. The electrical power-transfer system is determined to be in a hazardous state based on the first measurement, the second measurement, and the third measurement, and in response to the determination one or more actions are performed to correct the hazardous state.

Abstract: A system and method that allows an individual event participant to schedule and/or status an event and the provisions of one or more ancillary tasks associated with the event. The scheduling of the provisions of the event and ancillary tasks and sub-tasks associated with the event are performed by the event participant without the intervention of a centralized event planner using a system that provides for integrated scheduling of resources and calendaring of people within a common event-based scheduling system. The event-based scheduling system provides vertical integration of multiple sub-tasks within an individual task and horizontal integration of each sub-tasks across multiple tasks. The event-based scheduling system and method include an event-based scheduling application which automates and integrates all the task and sub-tasks required to plan, conduct, status, and report a complex event or process.
