摘要： A system and method are provided to perform current sensor error compensation. The system and method involve obtaining a current measurement of a current on a circuit from a current sensor; obtaining a voltage measurement of a voltage associated with the current from a voltage sensor; determining a fundamental frequency of the voltage from the voltage measurement; and performing error compensation on the current measurement based on the determined fundamental frequency to produce a corrected current measurement. The current sensor error compensation may be performed to correct current measurements in a motor system, such as in a motor overload relay, at a low cost by using functionality already available in the system.

摘要： A method of performing temperature-based diagnostics for motor starters within a physical grouping of motor starters is performed by determining a presently expected temperature operating range for each starter based on measuring operating temperatures of the starters; measuring their current draws, and evaluating the temperature and load draw data in light of compensation values assigned for the known power ratings of the starter and the starter's physical location within the grouping. With the presently expected temperature operating range of the starter determined, and the periodic monitoring of starter temperatures, when an individual starter's temperature exceeds its expected range, a diagnostic warning will be issued for that starter and/or for the control panel itself as a guide for preventative maintenance. Alternately, the warning may be issued for an unexpected temperature rise for a given rise in current draw, or for values exceeding an expected rate of temperature change.

摘要： A simple, economically efficient, synchronized switching system for control of a three phase motor contactor utilizes only Voltage monitoring to determine zero crossings and knowledge of the sinusoidal power waveforms and operational delay period of the contactor, to synchronize operation of the contacts at low power. The phases can be serially utilized for zero crossing detection upon Close or Open commands, so as to spread the wear over each set of contacts. Expensive metal at the contact surfaces can therefore be used more efficiently. For arc energy reduction upon contact opening, knowledge of Line-Load Voltage on at least one phase can be used to derive an empirical determination of the voltage angle at opening which yields the lowest arc energy.

摘要： In accordance with an example embodiment of the invention, in an overload relay for a three-phase motor, an adjusted threshold for detected current phase unbalance is dynamically determined at which the relay will be tripped. The adjusted threshold is a function of a ratio of an average of currents in the three-phases to the rated full load current of the motor, i.e., motor load. As the motor load decreases, the adjusted current phase unbalance threshold is increased, causing the resulting trip time to increase, thereby increasing motor run time and reducing downtime.

摘要： Techniques for monitoring the health of a three-phase induction motor are provided. An expected threshold value is calculated as a function of an expected ratio of current unbalance to voltage unbalance for the three-phase motor. Embodiments determine whether a measured current unbalance exceeds the expected threshold value. Responsive to the measured current unbalance exceeding the expected threshold value, a remedial action may be taken, such as generating diagnostic information or activating one or more protection operations for the three-phase induction motor.

摘要： A measurement module receives a defined system topology and system component characteristics information for a system. The measurement module calculates an expected system impedance for the defined system topology. The measurement module collects one or more impedance measurements using a high frequency voltage stimulus. Finally, the measurement module compares the one or more impedance measurements with the expected system impedance to determine adequacy of protective grounding of the system.
