Electronic Trip Unit With User-Adjustable Sensitivity To Current Spikes

View page
US Patent:
6400543, Jun 4, 2002
Filed:
Jul 9, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/682011
Inventors:
Alan Joseph Messerli - Bristol CT
Mark Frederick Culler - Glastonbury CT
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
H02H 300
US Classification:
361 932, 361 933, 361110, 702 64, 702 58
Abstract:
A method of protection in an electronic trip unit is described herein. The method includes selecting a limit value. The method further includes sensing an electrical signal to provide corresponding first and second sensed signals, each indicative of an electrical characteristic of the electrical signal. The first and second sensed signals are compared to determine a rate of rise of the electrical characteristic, and the rate of rise is compared to the limit value to detect a spike in the electrical characteristic. The generation of a trip signal is withheld when the rate of rise is greater than the limit value.

Circuit Breaker Comprising A Current Transformer With A Partial Air Gap

View page
US Patent:
6459349, Oct 1, 2002
Filed:
Mar 6, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/519222
Inventors:
Zoltan Giday - Neumuenster, DE
Alan J. Messerli - Bristol CT
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
H01F 1706
US Classification:
336178, 336175, 335 18
Abstract:
A circuit breaker assembly having an electronic trip unit used to detect an overcurrent condition in a protected electrical circuit. The electronic trip unit being electrically connected to a current transformer used to sense electrical current and provide operating power to the electronic trip unit. The current transformer comprising a metal core having a top surface and a bottom surface where the difference between the top and bottom surfaces defines a height of the core. The core having a concentrical opening extending through the height so that the distance between an outside point on the concentrical opening and the closest outside point of the core defines a thickness of the core at that point. Passing through the core opening is a primary winding and encircling the thickness of the core is a secondary winding. To optimize usage of the current transformer, a partial air gap is added to the metal core so that the range of operation is maximized while at the same time minimizing the remanence attenuation.

Electronic Trip Unit With User-Adjustable Sensitivity To Current Spikes

View page
US Patent:
62628720, Jul 17, 2001
Filed:
Jun 3, 1999
Appl. No.:
9/325605
Inventors:
Alan Joseph Messerli - Bristol CT
Mark Frederick Culler - Glastonbury CT
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
H02H 300
US Classification:
361 932
Abstract:
A circuit breaker trip unit with user-adjustable sensitivity to current spikes (22) includes a user-adjustable switch (30), a current sensor (32), an analog-to-digital (A/D) converter (34), a microprocessor (36), and a power supply (37). The current sensor (32) is electrically connected to the distribution circuit (10) and provides analog signals indicative of current measurements in the distribution circuit (10) to the A/D converter (34). The A/D converter (34) converts the analog signal to a digital line signal and presents the digital line signal, via a bus (38), to the microprocessor (36). The user-adjustable switch (30) is arranged to provide a signal indicative of a limit value, via a bus (40), to the microprocessor (36). The microprocessor (36) comprises a plurality of registers (42-48) and ROM (50) internal thereto. The ROM (50) includes trip unit application code, e. g.

US Patent:
59745452, Oct 26, 1999
Filed:
Sep 22, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/934868
Inventors:
Mark J. Obermeier - Coventry CT
Paul H. Singer - West Harford CT
Alan J. Messerli - Bristol CT
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
G06F 900
US Classification:

Molded Case Circuit Breaker Shunt Trip Unit

View page
US Patent:
47868856, Nov 22, 1988
Filed:
Dec 16, 1987
Appl. No.:
7/133867
Inventors:
Robert A. Morris - Burlington CT
Paul T. Rajotte - Plainville CT
Alan J. Messerli - Bristol CT
Assignee:
General Electric Company - New York NY
International Classification:
H01H 902
H01H 1304
US Classification:
335202
Abstract:
An integrated protection unit is a circuit breaker which includes basic overcurrent protection facility along with selective electrical accessories. A molded plastic accessory access cover secured to the integrated protection unit cover protects the accessory components contained within the circuit breaker cover from the environment. A shunt trip unit is one such accessory component which can be field-installed without affecting the integrity of the circuit breaker overcurrent protection components.

Method For Error Detection And Correction In A Trip Unit

View page
US Patent:
60651482, May 16, 2000
Filed:
Mar 5, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/035192
Inventors:
Mark J. Obermeier - Coventry CT
Alan J. Messerli - Bristol CT
Paul H. Singer - West Hartford CT
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
G11C 2900
US Classification:
714763
Abstract:
A method for error detection and correction in an electronic trip unit is presented. The electronic trip unit includes a ROM having trip unit application code, e. g. , main functionality firmware, including initializing parameters, and boot code, stored therein and an EEPROM having operational parameter code, e. g. , encoded enumerations for parameters such as 50/60 Hz. , UL/ANSI/IEC, ect. , stored therein The integrity of the code is monitored using CRC or checksum. Corrupted data is recovered by using encoded enumerations with at least two repetitive bit patterns of appropriate width. Encoding enumerations with greater that two repetitive bit patterns allows for each enumerated value to be recovered from any single bit corruption by replacing the corrupted pattern with the matching pattern. Alternatively, with a plurality of encoded enumeration groups stored in the EEPROM a corrupted enumeration can be properly selected and corrected by cross correlating the enumeration groups. Also, enumerations can be encoded with two identical bit patterns.

Electronic Circuit Breaker Trip Function Adjusting Circuit

View page
US Patent:
47108444, Dec 1, 1987
Filed:
Aug 11, 1986
Appl. No.:
6/895400
Inventors:
Graham A. Scott - Avon CT
Alan J. Messerli - Naugatuck CT
Assignee:
General Electric Company - New York NY
International Classification:
H02H 700
US Classification:
361 96
Abstract:
The overcurrent trip levels of an electronic circuit breaker are selected by means of a variable resistance ladder network comprising binary encoded switches. The binary encoded switches reduce the size and cost of the trip unit, rendering electronic trip facility to a wider range of industrial circuit breakers utilizing both analog as well as digital processing circuits.
