Lightning and surge protection devicesArturoOsborn
A lightning strike near a structure or overhead supply lines can cause a surge voltage on the cable lines and can transmit a momentary high voltage impulse. This surge even if it lasts for microseconds can destroy many electronic components. In LEC, there is a full range of surge protection devices (SPD) that you can install to protect electrical devices from voltage spikes. These SPDs either block or channel the excessive voltage to the ground. For all types of Surge protection devices Visit: http://www.lightningprotection.com/

High current is a hazard to the turbine and technicians alike. For the turbine, lightning strikes can damage blades and short out electric equipment when not sufficiently grounded. There are ways to handle the high current in lightning. Inside the nacelle, technicians have to diagnose issues to get troubled turbines back into production as soon as possible. Several new smart electrical meters can assist that work.

An integrated earthing system (earthing grid) aims to protect digital/electronic equipment against the effects of severe electric and magnetic disturbances (such as lightning, short-circuits, et cetera) and enables this equipment to function properly, both on the short- and long-term.
An earthing grid normally has three different primary functions:
Preventing electrocution or fire caused by short-circuits or insulation defects
Avoiding human injuries and fatalities in case of a direct or nearby lightning strike
Protecting electronic equipment against the effects of electromagnetic disturbances so that it can continue to function properly on both the short- and long-term
Historically, those three protection functions were developed separately, under the names ‘protective earthing’, ‘lightning protection’, and ‘functional earthing’. In the course of time it became clear that these three different earthing systems could influence each other up to the point of hampering each other’s proper and efficient functioning. As a result, the only way to ensure that all protective functions are well covered, is to design a single integrated earthing system that deals with all three issues simultaneously.
The integrated earthing system (earthing grid) is meanwhile embedded in the related safety, lightning protection, and EMC standards, and its reliability has been field proven in many installations. It is the current state of the art solution and an indispensable part of critical IT operations. However, designing such a network is a complex task, to be executed by a specialized engineer.
Concerns voiced for Darlington Nuclear Plant extension. Concerns of economics and environmental issues and need to review economic risks currently being externalized during the planning process.
Directed Energy Weapons
===================
Directed energy weapons take many forms. From EMP (electromagnetic pulses) to HPM (high powered microwaves), several weaponized forms of Radio Frequency are being developed.
These .pdf’s from the US Navy Directed Energy Warfare Office (DEWO) show multiple applications for defensive / offensive Radio Frequency weaponry.
Many people have fallen behind the times in regards to understanding what capabilities are being developed, and what current next generation weapons are being deployed.

Magnetic level indicators provide highly visible indication of level with or without signal outputs monitoring tail and vessel level. The term bridle is used to describe a vertical pipe connected to the side of a storage tank or process vessel, most often with side-to-side or side-to-bottom connections. Because the fluid inside the bridle rises and falls equally with the level of fluid inside the tank or vessel, bridles have been adapted for level measurement use on a broad scale.
In many industries, the atmosphere, though safe to breath, may be unsafe for an electrical spark. These areas often have pneumatically operated equipment for safety. And that equipment needs a source of clean dry air or as it is called in the industry, Instrument Grade Air. Plants typically have a centralized instrument grade air line that delivers air to the instruments that need it. However, oftentimes the instrument grade air is of inferior quality and contaminated with water. This air will benefit from a point of use drying system that guarantees instrument grade air. Traditional drying systems using PSA (Pressure Swing Adsorption) or refrigerant require expensive modifications to operate within hazardous areas. Air dryers made from hollow fiber membranes can dry compressed air without the use of electricity and are therefore safe for hazardous environments.
Hazardous locations have or could potentially have high concentrations of flammable gases, vapors, combustible dusts or ignitable fibers and flyings. Refineries, chemical processing plants, mines and grain mills are examples of industries with hazardous atmospheres. Even a small spark can lead to a horrific explosion dangerous to equipment and workers in the area.

The wedge shape of the meter housing makes See-Flo® practically self-cleaning. Where periodic maintenance might be necessary, the tempered glass window is easily removed and replaced.
Gases and steam are compressible. It is normal that when gas or steam reaches the disc in a valve, it compresses and builds up before passing through the valve. This compression may cause a rapid build up of system pressure and be potentially harmful. There are other process conditions, such as boiler control malfunction, that can create elevated pressure in a closed system. Every system and component in a pressurized system has a safe operating pressure limit that must not be exceeded.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
