Rapid fault analysis
Solid basis for network planning
Data basis for automation and control equipment
Monitoring of power quality
e.g. according to EN 50160
For some years now, the classic planning model for unilateral energy supply (from the power station to the consumer) and the technology of electrical energy supply have been changing due to many external circumstances. The requirements for more efficient networks are increasing, as is the feed-in capacity from renewable energies. Charging stations for e-mobility and capacitive loads also add to the strain on networks.
e.g. according to EN 50160
Components must be very easy to install using "plug-and-play” methods, but at the same time, they must also cost as little as possible during operation.
Additional monitoring and telecontrol systems must be adapted to the low expansion reserves of compact distribution substations.
Solutions need to offer an economical entry level yet be easily expandable according to current needs and the desired resolution.
New requirements on energy supply, the energy transition, and changing load profiles are presenting power utilities with new challenges. They can be overcome with a good overview of what is happening in the grid, but this requires the right measurement technology.
Distribution substations are increasingly being transformed into intelligent nodes. They perform tasks ranging from pure measurement, of energy flows, fault detection and power quality analysis alongside complete remote control and automation. When retrofitting existing distribution substations in particular, appropriate framework conditions must be taken into account when selecting measurement technology.
A comprehensive overview is required for smart grids - from electricity generation to transportation, distribution and consumption. As energy data must be recorded on all levels for this purpose, smart energy distribution networks require more powerful measurement technology compared to typical systems. Janitza’s comprehensive product range provides technologically advanced and scalable measurement solutions. Energy data acquisition on all levels offers numerous advantages, e.g.:
