Context of Application
Just like any other process in a facility, electrical distribution systems are complex with many devices, and potential failures can occur at different locations. Considering the critical nature of the continuity of an electrical power supply, having the capacity to quickly view, analyze, and understand where the detected failure has occurred, like a car dashboard, is key for facility managers.
Problem to Solve
The facility manager needs to:
-
Gain visibility of the status and relevant information of the entire electrical system.
-
Receive alarms on abnormal conditions or events.
-
Monitor and report on peak demand, loading of equipment such as breakers, UPSs, transformers, generators, etc.
-
Know, analyze, and understand where issues of the electrical distribution network come from.
Purpose of Application
Provide real-time information about the electrical distribution system
-
Real-time status
-
Power availability
-
Detailed information about each connected device: breakers, UPSs, transformers, generators, etc.
Identify anomalies and notify the right personnel
The Electrical Distribution Monitoring and Alarming application provides alarming in the event of any abnormal conditions and notifications based on alarm priority and shift schedule.
Aggregate onboard alarm data in an easy-to-understand way
To avoid alarm flooding and help with alarm interpretation, incidents are intelligently aggregated based on event type and time.
Native integration of connected products
Plug and play connectivity of devices provides rich contextual data that cannot be captured by BMS or generic SCADA applications.
