Abstract: Unique systems, methods, techniques and apparatuses of a power line measurement device are disclosed. One exemplary embodiment is a measurement device comprising a measurement device structured to at least partially surround a segment of a power distribution line, the measurement device including a winding portion spaced apart from the segment of the power distribution line structured to receive magnetic flux from the power distribution line and to output data corresponding to a current flowing through the power distribution line; and a magnetic shield spaced apart from the measurement device and positioned radially outward from the winding portion relative to the segment of the power distribution line, the magnetic shield comprising a first section and a second section coupled to the first section at an obtuse angle, the magnetic shield being structured to reduce an amount of external flux from being received with the measurement device.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a transformer and a method of manufacturing the same, wherein at least a portion of a core is disposed inside a shield case formed from a polymeric resin composition containing conductive particles. An encasement comprising a dielectric resin encapsulates the shield case. An electrical conductor is electrically connected to the shield case and is accessible from the exterior of the encasement.

Abstract: A resin cast transformer having a core covered by a cushioning material is provided. The cushioning material is in contact with the core and includes a force absorption layer adjoining a force distribution layer. The force distribution layer is harder than the force absorption layer.

Abstract: An electrical apparatus is provided that has an electrical device encapsulated in a plastic encasement. The encasement includes an inner shell and an outer shell. The inner shell has a thickness greater than the outer shell and the inner shell is more flexible than the outer shell. The inner shell is formed from a first resin composition that, when cured, has a tensile elongation at break of greater than 5% and the outer shell is formed from a second resin composition that, when cured, has a tensile elongation at break of less than 5%.
