The Need to Update / Upgrade Test Procedures for Connectors Used in MV Underground Joints
نویسنده
چکیده
The authors have investigated factors that contribute to overheating of connectors installed in medium voltage joints. Tests completed on connectors for 1/0 AWG and 750 kcmil conductors confirm that the currently used test for evaluating connectors for use in joints is insufficient. Furthermore, the Success Criteria for these tests cannot be modified to better align the results with connector performance within joints. Therefore, a new test procedure is required to ensure that connectors installed in joints on underground cable systems are better able to operate at their rated temperature.

Wind and earthquake disasters in the world often cause billions of dollars of damage to buildings, most of which is to non-engineered buildings-especially homes. Wood-frame homes use connectors which exhibit partial rotational rigidity at the member ends, making analytical solutions difficult. This is due to the lack of information about the complex behavior of the connections used in this type...
متن کاملA Formal Petri Net Based Model for Antivirus Update Agent System
In this paper, a formal model for antivirus update agent system is presented based on mobile agent technology and predicate/transition Petri nets. The mobile agent system contains two mobile agents called DCA and UNA. It sends out agents to update antivirus on client computers in a network. Each agent takes on a specified responsibility. First, DCA roams through the network and check the last d...
