Most people have read media stories about older people losing large sums of money to scams. The sad truth is that it DOES happen! Government data shows that individuals beyond the age of 60 years often report the fraud they encounter. In fact, people 60+ are much more likely to report fraud than people in their 20’s, but far less likely to admit that they lost money. Senior fraud continues to be widespread, costing older people billions every year. It’s an alarming figure encompassing many different scams aimed at tricking seniors into providing personal information, placing their money and/or identity at risk. The Better Business Bureau’s Scam Risk Report indicates that monetary loss increases with age, ranking those over the age of 65 as losing the most money to scams. This may be due to the sophistication of today’s scammers or it could be more closely related to the increasing financial resources age may bring. In any event, there is little doubt that con artists, scammers, and fraudsters will continue to ply their trade, pilfering the nest eggs of unsuspecting senior victims. Another reason elderly people are the most likely age group to lose money to scammers is because fraudsters are meeting the needs of loneliness among seniors by finding common ground with the victims in order to build trust. These con artists are talkative and friendly to their senior victims, making it hard to see red flags. The top scams to which seniors are most susceptible include Health Insurance Fraud, Healthcare Fraud, Medicare Fraud, Medical Equipment Fraud, Counterfeit Prescription Drugs, Fraudulent Anti-Aging Products, Funerals and Cemetery Fraud, Telemarketing Fraud, Internet Fraud (including Internet Auction Fraud), Credit Card Fraud, Investment-Related Fraud (including Reverse Mortgage Scams, Nigerian Letter Fraud, Advance Fee Schemes, Redemption/Strawman/Bond Fraud, Ponzi Schemes, and Market Manipulations such as Pump and Dump Fraud), and Identity Theft. FRAUD PROTECTION FOR SENIORS by Cotter Bass addresses each of these fraudulent schemes in detail, providing multiple initiatives for detecting and subsequently dealing with scams and scammers. In addition, this comprehensive eBook reveals numerous strategies and tips for avoiding these potentially costly crimes, thus keeping your savings intact. [more]

Power system protection systems have three basic components: Instrument transformers, Relays, Circuit breakers The function of the CT is to reproduce in its secondary winding a current I’ that is proportional to the primary current I. The CT converts primary currents in the kiloamp range to secondary currents in the 0–5 ampere range for convenience of measurement. The function of the relay is to discriminate between normal operation and fault conditions. The OC relay in Figure 2 has an operating coil, which is connected to the CT secondary winding, and a set of contacts. When |I’| exceeds a specified ‘‘pickup’’ value, the operating coil causes the normally open contacts to close. When the relay contacts close, the trip coil of the circuit breaker is energized, which then causes the circuit breaker to open. System-protection components have the following design criteria: Reliability: Operate dependably when fault conditions occur, even after remaining idle for months or years. Failure to do so may result in costly damages. Selectivity: Avoid unnecessary, false trips. Speed: Operate rapidly to minimize fault duration and equipment damage. Any intentional time delays should be precise. Economy: Provide maximum protection at minimum cost. Simplicity: Minimize protection equipment and circuitry. Since it is impossible to satisfy all these criteria simultaneously, compromises must be made in system protection. The book consists from the following sections: Chapter 1: Power System Faults: Chapter 2: Instrument Transformers. Chapter 3: Overcurrent and Earth Fault Protection Relays. Chapter 4: Radial System Protection. Chapter 5: Zones of Protection. Chapter 6: Differential Relays. Chapter 7: Distance Relays. Chapter 8: Transformer Protection. Chapter 9: Generator Protection. Chapter 10: Busbar Protection. Chapter 11: Circuit Breakers. Chapter 12: Fuses. Chapter 13: References. [more]

Current-limiting fuses are widely used to protect the thyristors in dc drive systems. In the event of the commutation failure when regenerating (inverting), the fuses need to interrupt in loop supplied by the ac and dc voltages acting in series which is the most difficult case for protection by fuse. In this report, a detailed study of the complete interruption process has been investigated by modeling of arcing process of the fuse. The effect varying the motor time constant, supply impedance, number of fuses used to clear the fault and dc machine rating to the total response for fuses protecting against the regenerative circuit internal commutation fault has been studied. The model of 200A fuse is employed in this study and fuses in series with the semiconductor devices (F1) and fuses in ac line (F2) are both considered. [more]
