    Abstract: In implementations, a high-voltage power system may include circuitry and a cell-to-pack battery that is operatively connected to the circuitry. The cell-to-pack battery has: a cell arrangement including one or more cells, the cell arrangement configured to store energy for conversion into electrical energy for use in the high-voltage power system; a thermal management system having at least one of a first cooling plate arranged at a first side of the cell arrangement and a second cooling plate is arranged at a second side of the cell arrangement; and a modular open frame with which to secure the cell arrangement and the thermal management system, the modular open frame including a manifold for vent gas collection and an electrical box that houses a majority of electrical components for the battery pack, each of the manifold and the electrical box being connectible to the cell arrangement.

    Abstract: A system for a non-hybrid/non-electric vehicle includes a high voltage electromagnetic device and a power electronics system. The high voltage electromagnetic device is structured to couple to an engine and generate AC electrical power from the engine. The power electronics system is electrically coupled to the high voltage electromagnetic device. The power electronics system includes an AC -to-DC inverter and a junction box. The AC- to-DC inverter is structured to receive and change the AC electrical power to regulated DC electrical power. The junction box is structured to receive and provide the regulated DC electrical power to a plurality of electrical paths that electrically couple the junction box to a plurality of electrically-powered accessories. The regulated DC electrical power is provided to each of the plurality of electrically-powered accessories based on an electric power consumption need of each respective electrically-powered accessory.

    Abstract: A system includes a generator and an engine coupled to the generator. The engine is configured to provide mechanical power to the generator. The system further includes a controller coupled to the engine and the generator. The controller is configured to: receive information regarding an engine operating parameter threshold value at which an engine operating parameter value failed to match a load demand value that is indicative of a load exerted by the generator on the engine, and set the engine operating parameter threshold value as a maximum allowable engine operating parameter value for the engine.

    Abstract: A system comprises a generator and an engine coupled thereto. The engine is configured to provide mechanical power to the generator. A controller is coupled to the engine and the generator and is configured to compare an engine operating parameter value to a load demand value indicative of a load exerted by the generator on the engine. The controller determines that the engine operating parameter value fails to match the load demand value. The controller determines an engine operating parameter threshold value at which the engine operating parameter value failed to match the load demand value, and sets the engine operating parameter threshold value as a maximum allowable engine operating parameter value for the engine.
