This distribution automation sensor stores load and temperature data, and monitors the distribution line for loss of voltage, loss of current, or fault events. Reports are transmitted to an access point on a communications network using an integrated radio.

  • Monitors average load current, ambient temperature, fault threshold, battery status, and history of outages and surge events.
  • Allows more efficient maintenance scheduling using stored data profiles.
  • Prevents false tripping with the inrush restraint feature, which allows for coordinated integration with automated reclosing schemes.
  • Installs quickly using a standard hot stick.
  • Displays visual target in addition to remote indication.
  • Employs AutoRANGER® technology.
  • Automatically adjusts fault threshold based on steady-state load.
Note: Consult factory for available radio solution.
  • Reduce fault-finding time by communicating fault status back to a central location. Utilities are able to locate faults more quickly, thereby improving distribution reliability. Apply on overhead lines. The integrated radio operates in conjunction with a utility’s existing communications infrastructure, such as a mesh or other radio network, as pictured in the example below:
