Secure Feeder and Distribution Transformer MIS

The quality of the supply of electricity can be measured by installing meters at strategic locations in the network and by collecting and analysing the meter reading data of the network. The network of a utility is vast and spread over a large area. For better management, the area is divided into a number of administrative boundaries. It is complex and grows over time depending upon the overall growth of the area. The electrical network consists of many substations, feeders and distribution transformers (DT); analysing the meter reading data requires a smart, efficient and effective solution.

Proper utilisation of information from the assets is not always easy. Having installed good quality meters in substation feeders and distribution transformers and having collected data from these meters, the important task that remains is a thorough and effective analysis to obtain information that will assist in decision making.

Secure feeder and distribution transformer management information system (MIS) offers rich, specialised functionality which is of great help to the power distribution utilities to meet their information needs. It includes the operational and performance parameters of HT(HV) feeders and distribution transformers as analysed from meter readings.

The solution provides an excellent, user-friendly interface to document and view network elements like substation, feeder, DT and the associated metering points. The software can establish a B2B interface to access meter information and meter reading data from external sources as well.

Supply quality and reliability is the core analysis module of this solution. Detailed analysis and effective reporting is important for proper monitoring and decision support. The reports and dashboards are fully user configurable, which in effect, offers a very cost-effective alternative to costly business intelligence (BI) tools.

The product is capable of integrating with third party software through an exposed B2B interface, allowing deployment in many areas. The software is able to meet specific customer needs as the base product can be easily customised.

As a software for a truly specialised area, it delivers benefit to the utilities in the area of in-depth asset health monitoring and supply quality and reliability, which is also directly linked with customer satisfaction.

  • Distribution transformer (DT) Information service at a utility in India

    A utility was struggling to optimise the utilisation of the numerous distribution transformers in their system. By using the information and recommendations provided by our comprehensive distribution transformer study, the utility could improve the reliability of supply to their consumers and plan the maintenance of the DT system.
