Monitoring of Medium Voltage Cubicles

Monitoring of Medium Voltage Cubicles

Failure of critical electrical equipment is the leading cause of power outages, with busbar temperature as the primary indicator of failure. Unfortunately, to date, less than 5% of medium-voltage circuit breakers are continuously monitored, and the vast majority are over 20 years old.

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.

Bridgemeter is Above-Net 's Industrial IoT predictive analytics solution that enables intelligent remote monitoring of temperature and humidity in real time, preventing these situations from escalating.
