  • Apparatus for sensing and measuring a current on power transmission line
    Patent number: 4629979
    Abstract: An apparatus for sensing and measuring a DC or AC current on an LV or HV power circuit. The apparatus comprises a shunt element having an input connected to the transmission line. The current flowing through the shunt is measured by an electronic circuit which is located in a conductive housing connected in series with the shunt element. The housing conducts the current from the shunt back to the power circuit. The housing is dimensioned to contain therein the electronic circuit whereby to shield the circuit from thermal effects of the shunt element, the magnetic field effect of the measured current, and environmental electrostatic interference.

  • Energy extraction system from a capacitive source with shunt switching regulation
    Patent number: 4262256
    Abstract: A system for and a method of extracting energy from a capacitive source, for example the energy induced in an insulated section of the overhead wire of an AC transmission line. The energy is extracted from the overhead wire by tapping the primary winding of a voltage step-down transformer which develops at its secondary an AC voltage the value of which is regulated through shunt switching. The shunt switching regulation as such is achieved by power thyristors the firing of which is selectively controlled in accordance with the phase and the amplitude of the output voltage. A comparator is used to compare the output voltage value with that of a signal delivered by an internal ramp generator. Moreover, the firing instant of the thyristors is governed by the output signal of the comparator and also in function of the information on the polarity of the output voltage cycles.
