IndustriesAdvanced Feeder Pillar Monitoring System
A power distribution utility managing feeder pillars across urban networks had no way to monitor individual fuse status or capture high-frequency electrical data from dual 3-phase circuits. Their existing monitoring was too basic, it missed short-duration transient faults and didn't collect enough data to analyse root causes when failures occurred. With no granular visibility at the feeder level and no integration with their distribution management system, fault investigation was slow and reactive.
We built an advanced feeder pillar monitoring unit that measures voltage, current, and power factor across two independent 3-phase circuits simultaneously, while tracking the continuity status of all 24 fuse channels individually. The system logs 40,000 data points per day per pillar, capturing the high-frequency detail needed for transient fault detection and root cause analysis. A fault analytics engine automatically identifies transient events, phase imbalances, and blown fuse patterns in real time. All data is transmitted via 4G to the utility's distribution management portal, and the system integrates directly with their existing SCADA infrastructure via Modbus TCP for supervisory monitoring.
40,000 data points per day per pillar gave the utility the data density needed to detect transient faults that basic monitoring had always missed. Individual 24-channel fuse tracking pinpointed exactly which fuse failed and when, cutting fault diagnosis time significantly. Dual 3-phase measurement on two circuits from a single unit doubled coverage without doubling hardware. Real-time fault analytics flagged unbalanced loads and fuse events as they happened, and Modbus TCP integration connected everything directly into the utility's existing SCADA infrastructure with no control room changes required.
40K / Day
40,000 data points captured per pillar daily, the data density needed to detect transient faults that basic monitoring systems miss entirely.
24-Channel
Every fuse monitored individually across all circuits pinpointing exactly which fuse failed and when, with no manual inspection needed.
SCADA-Ready
Modbus TCP integration connects directly into the utility's existing supervisory system no control room changes, no additional infrastructure.
