Distance Protective Relay Using A Programmable Thermal Model For Thermal Protection

US Patent:
7239496, Jul 3, 2007
Filed:
Aug 28, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/650605
Inventors:
Gabriel Benmouyal - Boucherville, CA
Michael B. Bryson - Pullman WA, US
Assignee:
Schweitzet Engineering Laboratories, Inc. - Pullman WA
International Classification:
H02H 5/04
US Classification:
361103
Abstract:
The system includes a distance protective relay for power lines which includes a logic capability which is responsive to settings entered into the relay by an end user to implement the value of those settings into stored thermal model equations which emulate the temperature of the power line conductor. The logic within the relay is organized and has the capability of receiving the setting values entered by the user and to use those in the logic equations to determine the temperature of the conductor.

Voltage Regulation At A Remote Location Using Measurements From A Remote Metering Device

US Patent:
8427131, Apr 23, 2013
Filed:
Jun 12, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/483382
Inventors:
Michael B. Bryson - Pullman WA, US
David E. Whitehead - Pullman WA, US
Assignee:
Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories Inc - Pullman WA
International Classification:
H01F 29/04, G05F 1/14, G05F 1/153, G05D 17/00, H02J 3/00, H02J 1/00
US Classification:
323343, 323255, 323257, 323340, 700298, 700291, 307 17, 307103
Abstract:
Regulation of a remote load center voltage from a local location of a voltage regulator and a voltage regulator control using voltage measurements from the remote load center obtained using a metering device at the load center in communication with the voltage regulator control. The metering device may obtain remote voltage information at the load center and communicate such to the voltage regulator control using a direct communications line, a wide area network, or the like. The communications may include electrical (e. g. copper cable), light (e. g. infrared over fiber optics), radio frequency, or the like. The voltage regulator control may be configured to use local measurements and a line drop compensation algorithm in the event that the remote voltage information becomes unavailable.
