Discovering and mitigating potential safety concerns on your low-voltage distribution network is paramount. Having visibility into issues associated with outages and fires, energy theft and hot sockets can prevent catastrophic situations. Through the Safety Bundle, distributed intelligence applications such as High Impedance Detection, Meter Bypass Detection and Advanced Temperature Monitoring detect and locate poor electrical connections, discover meter tampering and energy diversion, and use high-resolution temperature readings to detect meter socket problems, respectively—all before they create a safety hazard or interrupt service. Learn how utilities are decreasing customer outage minutes, minimizing repair costs and field visits, ensuring customer safety and satisfaction, and positively impacting overall business processes with distributed intelligence applications.

Migrating from a manual meter reading, a touch-read AMR system, or a mobile AMR system to a fixed-network or cellular AMI system is both a difficult and an expensive decision for a utility to make.  In this session we’ll discuss the best time to migrate, the business case that will justify the migration to AMI, as well as explain how both the utility and its accountholders will benefit from the advantages an AMI system can provide. Plus, we’ll include tips for overcoming some common challenges that a utility may face when it migrates from AMR to AMI.

Accurate load profile data is essential to the success of interval billing—especially when estimated bills need to align with actual data.

As utilities look to deploy AMI, integrating distributed intelligence (DI) in parallel presents a unique opportunity to unlock transformative benefits. However, this concurrent approach comes with challenges, including balancing operational priorities, managing data complexities and mitigating deployment risks. In this session, we will share our experience navigating the integration of DI during our AMI deployment. We’ll discuss the strategies employed, ensuring interoperability while minimizing disruptions to field operations. Additionally, this session will cover the significant benefits realized and the unlocked value from the modern AMI solution.

When the voltage on your grid is stable and distributing electricity as intended, everything is status quo. But what happens when there are disruptions to the power flow via low- and/or medium-voltage faults? Detecting anomalies such as voltage sags/swells, spikes and notches to harmonics, electrical noise, switching transients and frequency variations can identify these issues and further restore steady voltage. Following the results of several pilot tests, the distributed intelligence Waveform Anomaly Detection application has been enhanced to further improve accuracy and reliability. This session will address how utilities are investigating the ability to detect the various types of anomalies and how distributed intelligence can identify and help proactively maintain grid resiliency and stability.
