Abstract: A propulsion system for an aircraft can include an electric power source and an electric propulsion assembly having an electric motor and a propulsor. The propulsor can be powered by the electric motor. An electric power bus can electrically connect the electric power source to the electric propulsion assembly. The electric power source can be configured to provide electrical power to the electric power bus. An inverter converter controller can be positioned along the electric power bus and can be electrically connected to the electric power source at a location downstream of the electric power source and upstream of the electric propulsion assembly.

Abstract: A detector assembly including a plurality of sensors. Each sensor may include a tube having a through-bore therein, a wire arranged within the through-bore of the tube, where the wire is electrically insulated from the tube, and a bracket secured along the entire length of the tube configured to provide rigidity along the length of the sensor.

Abstract: A meter socket adapter includes an insulating housing that is connected to a power circuit on one side by bus bars and connected to a watt-hour meter on the other side by jaw contacts. The housing includes insulating compartments for current transformers through which the bus bars extend. Current transformers extend around the bus bars and are housed in individual compartments in the current transformer housing. Transformed current is directed to the jaw contacts for metering with the watt-hour meter. The bus bars include an insulating layer there on, reducing the need for insulation around the secondary of the current transformers. The current transformers are then significantly smaller and fit within a K-Base meter socket. The adapter housings define a cavity with separate dielectric plates between the bus bars and the jaw contacts. The adapter conveniently allows for self-contained meters to be used in high current installations.
