A system and method for providing a mechanical joint supporting a printed circuit board and a solder joint of power module terminals to a printed circuit board, as well as a mechanical joint for facilitating a thermal interface between a power module and a heat sink or cold plate is disclosed. The system provides for both mechanical joints through a common mechanical support including a plurality of standoffs mounted to studs projecting from a heat sink or cold plate, wherein the assembly also provides for an insulating spacer to be clamped to the standoffs via a wing nut or similar fastener to support the printed circuit board.

An electrical power generator is characterized by a plurality of system parameters. The generator includes a controller for protecting the generator. The controller obtains data from which a present operating point of the generator and a power generating capacity of the generator can be determined. The controller further monitors data indicative of at least one system parameter as a function of time to detect an abnormality in a value of the system parameter. The controller then categorizes a type of event that caused the abnormality with respect to the data indicative of the system parameter as a function of time, the present operating point, and the power generating capacity. Finally, the controller provides a response for addressing the type of event that caused the abnormality.

An electrical power generator includes a controller for making a full power capacity of the generator available for consumption by at least one intelligent load coupled to an output of the generator. The controller obtains data from which both a present output power of the generator and a power capacity of the generator can be determined. The controller then provides the intelligent load with data indicative of both the present output power and the power capacity of the generator for use by the load in controlling its power consumption.

A rotating rectifier module for rectifying a multiphase alternating current signal provided by a multiphase alternating current power supply includes a housing, a circuit board, a plurality of input terminals, a first output terminal, a second output terminal, and a plurality of rectifier circuits. The housing has an outer surface, an inner surface defining a central opening for receipt of a rotatable shaft, and at least one cavity located between the outer and inner surfaces. The circuit board is mounted in a plane substantially normal to the outer surface. The input terminals are located on the circuit board. Each input terminal provides for electrical connection to one phase of the power supply. The first and second output terminals are located on the circuit board for electrical connection to a direct current load. The rectifier circuits are electrically connected in parallel between the first and second output terminals.
