  • Patent number: 11775887
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described for processing data having varied temporal characteristics to generate predictions related to management arrangements using random forest classifiers. For example, the system may receive first data related to a first management arrangement of a first entity and a second management arrangement of a second entity. The system may receive an output from the random forest classifier related to a predicted second management transformation. The system may then generate for display, in a user interface, a prediction based on the predicted second management transformation.

  • Patent number: 11264189
    Abstract: An electrical load control device such as, for example, an electrical switch is disclosed. In use, the electrical device includes a manual switch or mechanical actuator positioned with an opening or aperture of a front cover of the device, the manual switch or actuator being arranged and configured to manipulate a connected load. The electrical device includes one or more geometries, surface features, or spacers arranged and configured within the aperture of the front cover. During use, the geometries, surfaces features, or spacers are arranged and configured to interact with the manual switch or actuator to reposition and/or align the switch or actuator within the aperture so that a consistent and uniform gap or spacing is maintained between the outer perimeter of the switch or actuator and the inner surface of the aperture. In one embodiment, the geometries, surfaces features, or spacers may be positioned within one or more of the corners of the aperture.

  • Patent number: 10819088
    Abstract: A water barrier system for use in conjunction with an electrical panel to control water intrusion into and within the electrical panel is disclosed. In use, the water barrier system provides one or more barriers to prevent, or at least inhibit, water from entering the electrical panel, and/or to direct water, which has entered the electrical panel. The water barrier system may include one or more barriers extending from an interior surface of the electrical panel to block the migration of water, one or more weep holes in fluid communication with one or more channels to direct water that encounters or comes into contact with a top surface of the electrical panel, and/or one or more troughs to direct water that encounters or comes into contact with the top surface of the electrical panel.

  • Publication number: 20190387639
    Abstract: A wiring device includes a housing that encloses a line voltage port and/or a low voltage port for providing power to at least one removable load. The housing has an intake opening and an exhaust opening for drawing cooling air into the housing and for exhausting heated air. A fan is disposed within the housing and operates to move the air through the housing. A thermal load such as a heat sink or a transformer is positioned within the housing and receives cooling air to reduce the temperature of the load. The fan is energized when a sensed temperature in the housing exceeds a first predetermined threshold. Power to the line and/or low voltage port is reduced or shut off if the sensed temperature in the housing exceeds a predetermined value that is greater than the first predetermined threshold.
