  • Harmonimeter input circuit and methods of constructing and utilizing same
    Patent number: 5170114
    Abstract: A portable instrument for locating and measuring harmonic distortion in a conductor. The instrument permits voltage and current harmonics to be easily read while the load is changing. Thus, the instrument may provide a great deal of insight as to the source of problem causing harmonics.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 11, 1991
    Date of Patent: December 8, 1992
    Assignee: Myron Zucker, Inc.
    Inventors: Michael Z. Lowenstein, Ronald G. Jawernycky
  • Apparatus for detecting a plurality of energy levels in a conductor
    Patent number: 4972153
    Abstract: Energy sensing and monitoring apparatus is disclosed which can sense a plurality of energy levels in a conductor, and provide an indication when any of such energy levels is improper. The energy sensing apparatus includes an inductive device for sensing an energy level in a conductor and for providing an input signal indicative of the energy level; a comparator for receiving the input signal, comparing the input signal to a plurality of predetermined level ranges, and providing an output signal when the input signal does not fall within at least one of the predetermined level ranges; and a power source for supplying power to the comparator.

  • Apparatus for detecting malfunctions of a single electrical device in a group of electrical devices, and methods of constructing and utilizing same
    Patent number: 4968944
    Abstract: Apparatus for detecting and indicating malfunctions of single electrical device in a group of electrical devices. The apparatus comprises an inductor connected to a common output of a group of electrical devices for providing an input signal corresponding to electrical energy in the group of electrical devices, a comparator connected to the inductor and receiving the input signal therefrom, the comparator functions to provide a default signal when at least one of the electrical devices malfunctions, a detector connected to the comparator for receiving the default signal therefrom, a timer connected to the comparator and the detector, the timer being actuated upon receipt of the default signal from the comparator and functioning to provide a timer signal to the detector means a predetermined time thereafter, and an indicator connected to the detector and being operated in response to an enable signal received therefrom.

  • Apparatus for detecting malfunctions of an electrical device, and methods of constructing and utilizing same
    Patent number: 4849849
    Abstract: Apparatus for detecting malfunctions of an electrical device comprises a current transformer, connected to the electrical device a current-sensitive switch connected to the current transformer, a power supply connected to the current sensitive switch, and an indicator connected between the switch and a power supply. The switch is adapted to be switched on and prevent the indicator from being actuated by the power supply while the energy in the electrical device is greater than or equal to a predetermined level, and is adapted to be switched off and permit the indicator to be actuated by the power supply while the energy in the electrical device is less than the predetermined level.
