Monitoring of Medium Voltage Cubicles

The failure of critical electrical equipment is the main cause of power outages, and the primary indicator of failure is the temperature of the busbars. Unfortunately, to this day, less than 5% of medium-voltage circuit breakers are continuously monitored, and the vast majority have been in operation for over 20 years.

The lack of monitoring, combined with the age of the equipment, represents a high risk of power outages and generates an average loss of R$ 500,000.00 per event, not counting accidents and deaths.
