  • Patent number: 10353367
    Abstract: The disclosed hot cutover box creates an electronic virtual bypass around a terminal strip to which existing control system, new control system, and final control element connections may be made, thereby allowing migration from an existing to a new control system to take place. Sensors allow measurement of a current signal without disrupting electrical continuity and connectors allow the hot cutover box to be introduced to the circuit with no disruption to the controller output. Once the hot cutover box is in place, wiring connections can be removed from the terminal strip as the hot cutover box effectively provides a parallel current pathway around the terminal strip.
    Type: Grant
