End-of-line voltage monitoring

Advanced metering infrastructure

End-of-line voltage monitoring is an advanced voltage monitoring capability provided through every Eaton AMI endpoint, regardless of meter brand. Eaton’s unique data streaming capabilities allow a subset of a meters to stream voltage values back as often as every minute. These same capabilities can also be used to stream back other key power quality or service data.

Data analysis

Once in the Yukon software environment, voltage information and alarms can be viewed, analyzed or exported, and automatic voltage notifications can be established to alert utility personnel immediately in the event of an abnormal voltage condition. The functionality of the highly accurate end-of-line voltage monitoring is essential for utilities to ascertain system changes, as well as support DA efforts to automate voltage leveling, VAR reduction and conservation voltage reduction (CVR). Eaton’s solution allows providing this data to Yukon, the optional Yukon Volt/VAR Optimization module, SCADA, or third party VVO applications.

Detailed information

Eaton AMI endpoints are capable of reporting over- and under-voltage alarms, daily minimum and maximum voltage, and interval voltage data to the Yukon software platform, enabling utilities to establish and maintain cost-effective and high-level power quality.
