Abstract: An apparatus including an electrical cable provided with light emitters along its length for visual communication of its position/extent and of statuses of the apparatus, said statuses including at least statuses related an insulation resistance between conductors of the electrical cable. The apparatus is provided with a power unit enabling status updates and light emission also when the electrical cable is disconnected and thus not in use.

Abstract: An electronic control unit for a compactor obtains a planned operating profile of the compactor, generates a predicted power expenditure schedule for the compactor based on the planned operating profile, determines, based on the predicted power expenditure schedule, that a predicted energy expenditure of the compactor exceeds an available energy of the compactor, generates a modified operating profile in response to determining that the predicted energy expenditure of the compactor exceeds the available energy of the compactor, and operates the compactor according to the modified operating profile.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for indicating a status of an electrical cable, in particular in a power system of a vehicle the apparatus being configured to be attached to the electrical cable, the apparatus comprising: voltage measuring means for continuously measuring a voltage level of the electrical cable, at least one light-emitting indicator configured to be visibly attached to the electrical cable, control means for controlling emission of light from the at least one light-emitting indicator based on the measured voltage of the electrical cable. The apparatus is adapted to be powered by a power source other than the electrical cable.
