Our early research wrote it plainly: the difference in current balance across phases returns directly as current on the neutral line. A neutral sized for balance carries the imbalance as heat. That makes phase balance a safety property. Excess neutral current raises conductor temperature, lifts neutral-to-ground voltage, and interferes with electronics that reference ground. The…

Read time: 2 minutes We Asked AI to Solve Its Own Power Crisis. Here’s What Happened. We conducted an unusual experiment: we asked artificial intelligence to diagnose the very problem that could destroy it. We fed Google’s most advanced AI system over 10,000 pages of electrical engineering knowledge—everything from fundamental textbooks to cutting-edge energy research.…

The Vulnerability of Power Flow The most destructive threat scenarios that could be exerted against our grid and power networks involve the manipulation of power control technology to cause cascading power events that inflict widespread damage to utility and customer equipment. This applies universally, in generation, transmission and distribution and on the customer…

The Reality of Fire Risk in Transmission and Distribution Networks The flow of power in the grid is continuous much like water in a riverbed, only instead of erosion being the steady force of change and floods being the worst case scenario, it is infrastructure degradation and out of control fires. As suburbs push further…

3DFS was selected as one of 6 North Carolina startups leveraging elements of artificial intelligence to compete in the Startup Showcase for the State of Technology Conference and was fortunate enough to win. What Software-Defined Electricity does The About 3DFS page names the method Software-Defined Electricity. Software measures the current as it moves, not…

On Wednesday, January 31, 2018, The Southeastern Virginia Association of Energy Engineers will host 3DFS at their quarterly chapter meeting to introduce the concept of Software-Defined Electricity and discuss how real time digital control will shape the future of the ships, submarines, microgrids and other military related projects. Time & Date: Wednesday, January 31,…
