20130206555 | ON-LOAD TAP CHANGER - The invention relates to an on-load tap changer for switching among different winding taps of a step transformer without interruption. The general inventive concept lies in eliminating the previously static design of the on-load tap changer, comprising a load transfer switch and a selector adjoining directly under the load transfer switch, and to bring about a spatial separation of the load transfer switch and selector assemblies. | 08-15-2013 |
20130220782 | TAP CHANGER AND VACUUM SWITCHING TUBE FOR SUCH A TAP CHANGER - A tap changer for uninterrupted switching over between winding taps of a tapped transformer has two load branches each for a respective phase to be switched. Each load branch has a vacuum switching contact acting as main contact and parallel thereto at least one series connection of a switch-over resistance and a respective further vacuum switching contact. The two load branches are connected with a common load shunt or connectable by mechanical switching elements. Two respective vacuum switching contacts of each load branch are constructionally combined to form a single vacuum switching tube with two separate movable contacts actuatable independently of one another and a common fixed contact. The common fixed contact is connected with the common load shunt or connectable mechanical switching contacts. | 08-29-2013 |
20140027257 | TAP CHANGER WITH VACUUM INTERRUPTERS - The invention relates to a tap changer having vacuum interrupters for switching over between winding taps of a tapped transformer without interruption. The tap changer according to the invention having vacuum interrupters is based on the general idea of combining the functionalities of at least one conventional vacuum switching contact which switches under load and a further mechanical switching means according to the prior art in just one single vacuum interrupter with two separately moving contact systems. | 01-30-2014 |
20140085028 | TAP CHANGER AND VACUUM INTERRUPTER FOR SUCH A TAP CHANGER - The invention relates to a tap changer for the interruption-free switchover between winding taps of a tap-changing transformer. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a novel vacuum interrupter which is particularly suitable for such a tap changer. The tap changer according to the invention is based on the general concept of combining in each case one main contact (V1) and one mechanical switching means (U1), connected in series therewith, of a first load branch and an additional resistive contact (V | 03-27-2014 |
20150060244 | SELECTOR FOR A TAP CHANGER - The invention relates to a selector for a tap changer for switching among winding taps of a step transformer without interruption, wherein the selector consists of a plurality of honeycomb segments arranged horizontally one over the other and vertically next to each other, which honeycomb segments can be fixed to each other by contact holders and pins. According to the invention, by means of such a modular design, a large variety of selector variants is possible using only few components. | 03-05-2015 |

20090271249 | Computer-Based Rating System and Method Having Mid-Quartile Filter - A method for a rating system identifies user-selected performance indicators associated with one or more properties. A rating is computed for each of the user-selected performance indicators and for each entity in an entity class by applying at least the user-selected performance indicators to a rating algorithm. The entity class is divided into at least three approximately equal numbers of entity. For each of the performance indicator rating, the method sorts the performance indicator relative to a respective performance indicator of the other entity in the entity class, maps the sorted results to one of the at least three divisions of the entity class, and identifies and presents a portion of the user-selected performance indicators that represent indicators that outperform or underperform the entity class. | 10-29-2009 |
20100211518 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ESTIMATING CO2 EMISSIONS - Estimations of carbon dioxide (“C02”) emission of an entity upon the condition of incomplete or missing data uses one or more algorithms implemented in a machine having a processor and a memory and data concerning the entity. The data is applied to an algorithm implemented as code executable in the processor. The algorithm produces a result that comprises an estimate of the C02 emission of the entity. The C02 emission estimate can be output to a user, and the underlying formula and data can inspected and optionally modified by users with suitable permissions. The C02 emission estimate can be applied as a factor in a formula to compute a rating for the entity which can be output from the machine. Error estimates associated with the data used by the algorithm can be generated to provide improved estimates. | 08-19-2010 |
