The Power to Know

It’s all about the need to know...

Your need to know what’s
happening with your facil­ity’s on-site power and
distribution system. That
includes automatic transfer
switches, generator paral­leling control switchgear,
gensets, circuit breakers,
paralleling bus, protective
relays and other gear.

It’s not only to know, but
to understand. To act. To
solve issues when seconds
count.

Your need to know about
equipment condition,
operation and status is
more critical than ever.
Essentially, to make sure
that all equipment and

components are healthy
and “playing nice.” That’s
especially important as
system complexity and
sophistication increase.

Knowing can help ensure
power reliability for criti­cal operations, and thus
continuity of those opera-

tions. To make sure when
questions are asked, you
have answers.

Now there’s a way to get
exactly the amount of
communication, monitor­ing and control capabilities
you want for your utility
source and on-site power
system.
