  • Patent number: 11868148
    Abstract: An isolation transformer boost system. The system includes a power supply and an isolation transformer. The isolation transformer includes a primary winding electrically connected to the power supply, a secondary winding, a first voltage tap, and a second voltage tap. Wherein the isolation transformer is configured to, in response to a command from an electronic processor, disconnect a connection from the second voltage tap and establish a second connection from the first voltage tap, wherein the command is based on an electrical characteristic measurement of the power supply exceeding an upper limit threshold for a predetermined period of time.

  • Publication number: 20220415588
    Abstract: A power switch including a line input configured to receive a line voltage, a load output configured to output the line voltage, and a contact configured to selectively electrically connect the line input to the load output. The contact has a closed position in which the line input is electrically connected to the load output, and an open position in which the line input is not electrically connected to the load output. The power switch further includes a switch configured to selectively control the contact between the open position and the closed position, a housing, and a mounting foot configured to secure the housing to a surface. The mounting foot includes a molding and an insert contained within the molding.

  • Publication number: 20210075224
    Abstract: A power system including a load terminal, a sensor, and an electronic processor. The load terminal is configured to electrically connect to a load device. The sensor is configured to sense an electrical characteristic of the load device. The electronic processor is configured to receive, via the sensor, the electrical characteristic of the load device, supply power, via the load terminal, to the load device, discontinue supply of power to the load device when the electrical characteristic of the load device crosses a predetermined threshold, and enter a standby mode upon discontinuing supply of power to the load device. Wherein when in standby mode the electronic processor, at predetermined time intervals, determines if the load device crosses the predetermined threshold a second time.
