Why use Megger's smart grid analytics for your solutions?

Smart Grid Sensors

MS5000

The MS5000 is an online wireless system for overhead distribution and sub-transmission lines that complements distribution management systems (DMS) and provides online information about faults and grid operations. It uses proprietary hardware and algorithms to support low power consumption while ensuring the high stability needed for large radio networks.

MS5200

The MS5200 smart grid medium voltage sensor complements distribution management systems by providing on-line information about faults and grid operations. It includes the ability to connect to ground to enable you to perform a direct voltage measurement instead of calculating the voltage from measurement of the electric field.

Frequently asked questions

Grid analytics is the use of intelligent sensors on overhead lines and underground cables to capture and analyse power waveforms, enabling operators to pinpoint disturbances, locate faults, and perform detailed electrical grid performance analysis.

Real-time power grid monitoring alerts network operators as soon as unexpected disturbances occur, so they can find and fix faults faster and keep customers online. It also enables ongoing electrical grid performance analysis, helping operators spot unsafe conditions and emerging weaknesses early, to improve overall network performance.

Distribution grid reliability is the ability of the local power network to deliver electricity to customers consistently, with minimal outages or quality issues.

High reliability is achieved and monitored through advanced smart grid analytics, such as the MGA smart grid software, helping reduce power interruptions, improve customer satisfaction, and maintain electrical asset health, which lowers costs associated with equipment damage and emergency repairs.

Utilities can improve distribution grid reliability by deploying advanced sensors and smart grid analytics software to detect faults quickly, automating switching to restore power faster, and using reliability data (like SAIDI/SAIFI) to target maintenance and upgrades where they will prevent the most outages.

Megger Grid Analytics helps utilities rapidly locate unsafe overhead line and underground cable failures, cutting patrol time and outage duration. It also highlights the parts of the network most at risk of failure, supporting targeted maintenance and better distribution grid reliability.

Megger Grid Analytics combines edge-computing sensors with advanced analytics to give deeper insight into what is happening on the power line and where abnormal disturbances occur. This enables operators to resolve issues more quickly and at lower cost than with traditional monitoring tools.
