  • Publication number: 20260098878
    Abstract: The present application discloses a current monitor mountable to an energized electrical conductor in an electric power system and related methods. In one embodiment, a current monitor comprises a housing, a first moveable arm coupled to the housing, and a second moveable arm coupled to the housing. The first moveable arm and the second moveable arm are configurable in an open configuration and a closed configuration. A current sensor is disposed in the moveable first arm and the second moveable arm and generates a signal output representing a current flow in the energized electrical conductor. The first moveable arm and the second moveable arm form a channel to receive the electrical conductor in the open configuration and transition to a closed configuration in which the first moveable arm and the second moveable arm substantially surround the electrical conductor in response to the electrical conductor entering the channel.

  • Publication number: 20230409486
    Abstract: A system for managing virtual memory. The system includes a first processing unit configured to execute a first operation that references a first virtual memory address. The system also includes a first memory management unit (MMU) associated with the first processing unit and configured to generate a first page fault upon determining that a first page table that is stored in a first memory unit associated with the first processing unit does not include a mapping corresponding to the first virtual memory address. The system further includes a first copy engine associated with the first processing unit. The first copy engine is configured to read a first command queue to determine a first mapping that corresponds to the first virtual memory address and is included in a first page state directory. The first copy engine is also configured to update the first page table to include the first mapping.
