Controlling Feeder Units For Self-Restoration Of Power - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240204517 titled 'Controlling Feeder Units For Self-Restoration Of Power
Simplified Explanation
The power system architecture described in the patent application allows for automatic restoration of power to feeder units in case of a power loss by reconfiguring the status of feeder unit breakers. It can also automatically reconfigure and restore power when a loss of source returns, as well as under abnormal conditions such as fault scenarios, breaker failures, operation failures, and relay failures.
- Automatically restores power to feeder units
- Reconfigures breaker status for power restoration
- Handles abnormal conditions for power restoration
Key Features and Innovation
- Self-healing operations for n number of feeder units
- Automatic restoration of power to all feeder units
- Reconfiguration of feeder unit breakers for power restoration

Original Abstract Submitted
generally disclosed herein is a power system architecture for controlling self-healing operations for n number of feeder units. the power system architecture may restore power automatically to all feeder units when a loss of power occurs by reconfiguring the status of feeder unit breakers. the power system architecture may also reconfigure and restore power automatically by opening and closing feeder unit breakers when a loss of source returns. the power system architecture may further reconfigure and restore power automatically for as many feeder units as possible under abnormal conditions such as fault scenarios, breaker failures, operation failures, and relay failures.
