The Challenge

Power distribution authorities traditionally relied on electromechanical maximum demand indicators for basic asset management, providing only a single snapshot of transformer performance at a given time. These systems, while useful for maintenance scheduling and capacity planning, lacked real-time data and required manual record-keeping, limiting their effectiveness for modern energy demands.

Our Solution

WideSky’s Pedestal Substation Solution revolutionizes this process with an intelligent, multi-circuit meter built to withstand the harsh substation environment.  Featuring automated IoT connectivity, real-time monitoring, and comprehensive data insights, this solution simplifies installation and enhances operational performance.  It offers continuous asset monitoring, including power, energy, temperature, and waveform data – empowering more efficient management and fast decision making.
