  • System and method for risk classification and warning of flashover events
    Patent number: 11816971
    Abstract: A system, wearable device and management device provided for predicting a flashover event. According to one aspect of the disclosure, a wearable device for predicting a flashover event is provided. The wearable device includes at least one thermal sensor configured to generate thermal data associated with an environment, and processing circuitry configured to: determine a risk of ignition of at least one combustible gas in the environment based on the thermal data, and trigger at least one action based on the determined risk of ignition.

  • Transformer and Device Configured to Provide a Current Limiting Power Source and a Galvanic Barrier
    Publication number: 20220336148
    Abstract: According to one or more embodiments, a current limiting device is provided. The current limiting device includes a transformer including: a primary winding configured to accept an input current, a core electromagnetically coupled to the primary winding, and a secondary winding electromagnetically coupled to the core. The secondary winding is configured to provide a current limiting energy source based on the input current where the current limiting energy source is limited to a predetermined maximum current based on at least one characteristic of the core.
