  • Publication number: 20210083469
    Abstract: One example includes a power generator protection system. The system includes a circuit breaker configured, when triggered, to provide an open circuit in a power line configured to conduct a current between a power grid point-of-interconnect (POI) and a power generator system. The system also includes a programmable controller configured to monitor the current and to generate a dynamic current threshold based on the current. The programmable controller can further be configured to compare the current with the dynamic current threshold and to trigger the circuit breaker based on a difference of the current relative to the dynamic current threshold to set an arc flash incident energy level of the power generator system at or below a predetermined safety level.

  • Patent number: 6272903
    Abstract: A leak indicating system for a pipeline valve, the valve for selectively controlling the flow of oil through the pipeline, the leak indicating system including a hollow can with a can interior and an open top end, the hollow can in fluid communication with part of the apparatus, a lid releasably closing off the open top end of the hollow can, and a spring compressed beneath the lid and held in compression by an oil-dissolvable member so that, upon dissolution of the oil dissolvable member by oil leaked from the apparatus and flowing into the hollow can and contacting the oil dissolvable member, the spring is released to launch the lid away from the hollow can. The system further includes a can top releasably secured over the open top end of the hollow can, the can top having a hole therethrough, the lid mounted above the can top, and the spring extendable through the hole in the can top. The system wherein the lid has at least one surface with visually sightable indicia thereon.
