Title: Device for remote operation of electrical disconnect

Abstract

Provided is a device for remote operation of an electrical disconnect. The device can include a handle clamp configured to be secured to an extending member of the electrical disconnect. The device can further include a case clamp configured to be secured to a rigid portion of the electrical disconnect. The device can further include a cable having an exterior sheath coaxially surrounding an inner cable. The inner cable can be coaxially slidable with respect to the exterior sheath. The inner cable can extend through an opening of the case clamp and be secured to the handle clamp. The device can further include an actuator configured to coaxially slide the inner cable such that the handle clamp is actuated towards the case clamp.

Nuclear reactor remote disconnect control rod coupling indicator

Patent Vuckovich, Michael [McKeesport, PA]

A coupling indicator for use with nuclear reactor control rod assemblies which have remotely disengageable couplings between the control rod and the control rod drive shaft. The coupling indicator indicates whether the control rod and the control rod drive shaft are engaged or disengaged. A resistive network, utilizing magnetic reed switches, senses the position of the control rod drive mechanism lead screw and the control rod position indicating tube, and the relative position of these two elements with respect to each other is compared to determine whether the coupling is engaged or disengaged.

Control rod drive mechanism (CRDM) with remote disconnect mechanism

Patent Lobscheid, Christian

The drive assembly includes annular drive magnets extending around a top end of a drive shaft and annular drive coils extending around the drive magnets, separated by a pressure boundary. A latch assembly is coupled to the drive magnets and engages with the drive shaft in response to actuation of the drive assembly. The drive coils also rotate the drive magnets and the engaged latch assembly to axially displace the drive shaft. Deactivating the drive coils disengages the latch assembly from the drive shaft, dropping a connected control rod assembly via gravity into a nuclear fuel assembly.

Local intelligent electronic device (IED) rendering templates over limited bandwidth communication link to manage remote IED

Patent Bradetich, Ryan; Dearien, Jason A; Grussling, Barry Jakob; ...

The present disclosure provides systems and methods for remote device management. According to various embodiments, a local intelligent electronic device (IED) may be in communication with a remote IED via a limited bandwidth communication link, such as a serial link. The limited bandwidth communication link may not support traditional remote management interfaces. According to one embodiment, a local IED may present an operator with a management interface for a remote IED by rendering locally stored templates. The local IED may render the locally stored templates using sparse data obtained from the remote IED. According to various embodiments, the management interfacemore » « less
