Within the project SLOBATCO, the question did arise, to what extent observatories have to rely on adequate power quality, for example, the perfectly sinusoidal shape of supply voltage and current, to ensure safe operation and accurate measurement results. International power quality standards are put in perspective with requirement specifications for observatories. This contribution describes themotivation, the underlying mechanisms that lead to issues, comments on the challenge in power systems engineering, proposes the instrumentation and installation, and interprets the first results. Experimental results clearly motivate the need for further measurement campaigns, as power-quality-related problems are common. A summary is provided together with an outlook and a motivation for future measurement campaigns.

A polymer planar Bragg grating substrate is manufactured and microstructured by means of a micromilling process, while the respective photonic structures are generated by employing a sophisticated single-writing UV-exposure method. A stripped standard single mode fiber is inserted into the microstructure, which is filled with a UV-curable adhesive, and aligned with the integrated waveguide. After curing, final sensor assembly and thermal treatment, the proposed coupling scheme is capable of withstanding pressures up to 10 bar, at room temperature, and pressures up to 7.5 bar at an elevated temperature of 120 °C. Additionally, the coupling scheme is exceedingly robust towards tensile forces, limited only by the tensile strength of the employed single mode fiber. Due to its outstanding robustness, the coupling scheme enables the application of planar Bragg grating devices in harsh environments. This fact is underlined by integrating a microstructure-coupled photonic device into the center of a commercial-grade carbon fiber-reinforced polymer specimen. After its integration, the polymer-based Bragg grating sensor still exhibits a reflection peak with a dynamic range of 24 dB, and can thus be employed for sensing purposes.

This is a suitable field to deploy robots for measurements, repair, or clearance, but development and test of such robots could be dangerous, because radiation sources need to be handled. To avoid these hazards in development or public demonstrations, safe alternatives to radiation samples have been sought using an already existing robot (EtaBot). One proposed solution is an optical substitution (“light follower”), the other one a fully-digital simulation of the contaminated area and the robot movement inside it using a hardware-in-the-loop simulator (HiL).

Therefore, a dual two-level inverter with two separate energy storages and an open-end winding machine is used. New control algorithms allow the charging of the energy sources whether two batteries, a combination of a battery and a fuel cell or a combination of battery and a flying capacitor is used. Within the scope of battery performance, this application is able to absorb or deliver the required power from a DC grid and still feed the electrical machine to enable a driving movement of the electric vehicle. As the presented concepts enable voltage balancing due to different battery loads and the use of only one dynamic energy storage in the charging operation, the shown application aims to achieve the high utilization of an electric vehicle powered by a (partly equipped) DC-grid.

Since all possible fault cases under all permissible operating conditions must be covered during qualification, only synthetic test circuits, in which a test requires only a short setup time, are used for this task. In this paper, an n-stage surge current generator for the generation of high short-circuit currents is presented. Using the example of a four-stage resonant circuit surge current converter, the advantages of this test circuit are explained and demonstrated by measurements. Furthermore, instructions for measuring the surge currents are given.
