Patent number: 12540988Abstract: A permanently installed absence of voltage tester (AVT) may include a connectivity verification system for verifying the connectivity of system cable leads to the main power lines in electrical equipment. An installed AVT may indicate whether the electrical equipment is in an electrically safe state without first requiring direct access to the equipment. One step in the AVT test procedure may include connectivity verification by the connectivity verification system, which may include a sub-procedure to confirm that the installed AVT is directly coupled as intended with direct connection to the equipment being monitored. The connectivity verification system may validate that the AVT is measuring the actual voltage on the power lines of the electrical equipment and has not registered a no-voltage condition due to an unknown disconnection error or installation failure.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2023Date of Patent: February 3, 2026Assignee: Panduit Corp.Inventors: Walid Balid, Masud Bolouri-Saransar

Publication number: 20250300458Abstract: A high voltage AC power fault managed power system is provided that includes accurate fault detection. The high voltage AC power fault managed power system includes a transmitter device and a receiver device that are coupled via a transmission line. The transmitter device and the receiver device obtain status information by monitoring a voltage or current on the transmission line, and share the detected status information with each other. High voltage power may continue to be transmitted through the transmission line when safety conditions are met based on the communication of status information between the transmitter device and the receiver device.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 17, 2025Publication date: September 25, 2025Applicant: Panduit Corp.Inventors: Walid Balid, Masud Bolouri-Saransar
