Certain exemplary embodiments can provide a system, which can comprise a set of electrical energy monitoring devices. Each of the set of electrical energy monitoring devices can be adapted to be mounted in a circuit breaker panel substantially adjacent to a corresponding circuit breaker. The system can comprise an energy monitoring master controller adapted to be communicatively coupled to each of the set of electrical energy monitoring devices.

Devices, systems, and methods for monitoring energy systems

Certain exemplary embodiments comprise a method, which can comprise configuring a system to compare an electrical value and a selected pre-stored threshold value of a plurality of pre-stored threshold values. The method can comprise configuring the system to modify the plurality of pre-stored threshold values based upon a predetermined change in measured temperature.

Systems, devices, and methods for temperature compensation in arc fault detection systems

Certain exemplary embodiments comprise a system that comprises an application specific integrated circuit configured to provide an output signal. The output signal can be configured to trip a device in an electrical circuit responsive to a detected fault. The application specific integrated circuit can comprise a temperature sensor. The application specific integrated circuit can be configured to correct at least one measured electrical value responsive to a temperature measured by the temperature sensor.

Systems, devices, and methods for arc fault detection

A method and a current sensor for measuring a current in a conductor. The sensor comprises a non-magnetic, flexible core member having a first end and a second end. A locking head having a channel therethrough is coupled to the first end of the core member. A first sensor conductor winding layer is mounted on the core member. Wherein the second end releasably engages the locking thread in the channel and adjustably configures the core member to surround the conductor as the second end is moved through the channel. In another embodiment the current sensor includes a locking tang within the channel and a plurality of sought tooth members on a portion of the core member and configured to selectively engage the locking tang as the second end of the core member is moved through the channel.
