LOAD SHEDDING FOR A VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17884145 titled 'LOAD SHEDDING FOR A VEHICLE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method for determining whether to perform a load shed operation for a vehicle, issuing a command to a device to perform the load shed operation, and opening a relay associated with the device if it fails to perform the operation.
- The method involves determining if a load shed operation is necessary for a vehicle.
- If the operation is needed, a command is sent to a device to carry out the load shed.
- The method checks if the device successfully performed the load shed operation.
- If the device fails to perform the operation, a relay associated with the device is opened to prevent power delivery.
Potential Applications
- Automotive industry for managing power distribution in vehicles.
- Energy management systems for optimizing power usage.
Problems Solved
- Efficiently managing power distribution in vehicles.
- Preventing power overload situations in devices.
Benefits
- Improved safety by preventing power overload.
- Enhanced efficiency in power management for vehicles.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method is provided that includes determining whether to perform a load shed operation for a vehicle. The method further includes responsive to determining to perform the load shed operation, issuing a command to a device to perform the load shed operation. The method further includes determining whether the device performed the load shed operation. The method further includes responsive to determining that the device failed to perform the load shed operation, opening a relay associated with the device to prevent power from being delivered to the device.
