Customer benefits

Benefits for utilities and energy consumers, in secondary substation, are:

q Improved quality of the power supply, indexes as SAIDI and SAIFI reduced.
§ Less and shorter outages and improved voltage quality

q Improved operational grid efficiency, reliability and availability

§ Improved tools for the network operators and the field crews

q Optimal utilization of the distribution network

§ Improved economy minimizing network losses and amount of not supplied energy
§ Fault analysis: density of fault, failure rate, criteria for the classification of the faults
§ Utilize the network more efficiently with more stability
§ Measurement analysis: power flow and quality
§ Ensured safety for personnel

q Less need to travel to locations with difficult access

§ Less need to work in dangerous environments
§ Improved maintenance, also proactive activities.
