The invention describes a method, system, device, and computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions for classifying faults on an electrical power line. In particular, the invention permits the classification of crossover faults using a local measurement technique. The inventive method includes providing a first electrical power transmission line and a second electrical power transmission line, and monitoring the first electrical power transmission line to identify a crossover fault occurring between the first and the second electrical power transmission lines.

A system for monitoring and controlling an electrical distribution network comprises an electrical distribution substation having a local area network (LAN), a feeder subsystem and a gateway. The feeder subsystem is coupled to the substation and receives electrical energy therefrom for distribution to customers, and includes slave devices for performing switching functions. The gateway provides remote access to the slave devices and the LAN.

A method for estimating phasors and tracking the frequency of a signal during frequency ramping is provided. The method uses a variable N-point DFT periodically to compute one or more phasors based on data acquired from one or more sampled signals. The period between DFT computations is a predetermined number of sample periods. After each DFT computation, the change in phasor angle between the current phasor estimate and the most previous phasor estimate is determined and used to estimate the instantaneous frequency of the signal. The current instantaneous frequency estimate and the most previous instantaneous frequency estimate are averaged to compute an average cycle frequency. In addition, a number of discrete frequencies and corresponding DFT windows based on a fixed sampling rate and a predetermined fundamental frequency of the signal are defined and used in estimating the instantaneous frequency. Once the average cycle frequency is determined the DFT window is adjusted by setting it equal to the DFT window corresponding to the discrete frequency closest to the average cycle frequency. A generator protection system analyzing voltage and current signals output from a generator is also provided. The voltage and current signals are monitored by respective voltage and current sensors to produce a plurality of signals representative of voltage and current characteristics of the generator. The system comprises components for receiving and sampling signal input, and for processing the samples according to the inventive method.

To minimize the weight of a magnetic tape recorder chassis and cabinet assembly, a wire frame chassis (18) carrying printed circuit board guides (20) and connectors (22) is mounted to one side of a sand cast bezel (24), and polyurethane wall panels (16) are secured to the wire frame. A cabinet cover and underlying tape transport assembly are hinged to the bezel to enable pivoting away from the wire frame, exposing circuit boards for servicing. The "open air flow" characteristic of the wire frame chassis (18) helps cool critical electrical components.
