TECHNOLOGY/BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY Identifying Arcing Hazards in Power Distribution Systems

The Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) is seeking industry partners to commercialize its technology for identifying arcing hazards in power distribution systems. The technology uses high-resolution sensor measurements to detect anomalies and identify potential arcing faults. The advantages of this technology include its ability to detect arcing signatures without requiring detection threshold parameters, and its potential applications in electric power delivery systems. The current stage of technology development is TRL 0-2, and LLNL has filed for patent protection. Interested companies should provide a statement of interest, including company name and address, point of contact information, and a description of corporate expertise and facilities relevant to commercializing this technology. Key points to consider: • The technology uses high-resolution sensor measurements to detect anomalies and identify potential arcing faults. • The technology does not require defining detection threshold parameters. • The technology has potential applications in electric power delivery systems. • The current stage of technology development is TRL 0-2. • LLNL has filed for patent protection.
