Abstract: A system for detecting stray voltage in a conductive object is disclosed herein. The system includes a pick-up element, electrical circuitry, a housing for enclosing the circuitry, a support for mounting the housing, and an indicator. The pick-up element is separated from the conductive object and capable of detecting an electric field from the conductive object. The support of the housing is such that the pick-up element remains separated from the conductive object. The electrical circuitry determines a voltage level corresponding to the electric field detected by the pick-up element and generates, based on a comparison of the determined voltage level relative to a reference voltage level, an indicator signal representative of whether stray voltage is present in the conductive object. Based on the indicator signal, the indicator indicates to a user of the system whether stray voltage is present in the conductive object.

Abstract: Systems for detecting stray voltage in a conductive object include indicators for indicating to a user of the system whether stray voltage is present in the conductive object. In one aspect, a system for detecting stray voltage includes a pick-up element in contact with the conductive object and capable of transmitting a charge of the conductive object, circuitry for generating, based on a charge received from the pick-up element, an indicator signal representative of whether stray voltage is present in the conductive object, and an indicator for indicating to a user of the system, based on the indicator signal, whether stray voltage is present in the conductive object. The system may include a housing for enclosing the circuitry and a support attached to the housing for mounting the housing on or near the conductive object such that the pick-up element is in contact with the conductive object.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for distributing electrical power from power substation circuits. The apparatus of the present invention is responsive to overcurrent conditions and selectively actuates a switching network so as to restore power to at least a portion of the users connected to the faulty circuit of the power distribution system.
