    • Russell, B. Don; Aucoin, B. Michael; Benner, Carl L. (United States. Patent and Trademark Office; Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1997-08-19)
      A method and apparatus are provided for detecting an arcing fault on a power line carrying a load current. Parameters indicative of power flow and possible fault events on the line, such as voltage and load current, are ...
    • Russell, Don B.; Aucoin, Michael B. (United States. Patent and Trademark Office; Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1996-11-26)
      A method and apparatus are provided for detecting an arcing fault on a power line carrying a load current. The apparatus monitors and analyzes the load current to obtain frequency components. The analyzed load current is ...
    • Russell, Don B.; Aucoin, Michael B. (United States. Patent and Trademark Office; Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1996-04-30)
      A method and apparatus are provided for detecting an arcing fault on a power line carrying a load current. The apparatus monitors and analyzes energy values of the load current flowing through the line. The analyzed energy ...
    • Russell, Don B. (United States. Patent and Trademark Office; Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1996-08-27)
      An expert detection system includes a method and apparatus for detecting high impedance faults occurring on a distribution circuit coupled to an AC power source. Based upon an expert's knowledge of high impedance fault ...
    • Russell, Don B., Jr. (United States. Patent and Trademark Office; Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984-08-14)
      Apparatus is provided for detecting the presence of a high impedance arcing fault on an electrical circuit, particularly a high voltage power line. Detection of a high impedance fault is realized by monitoring the high ...
