PRESense

Intelligent LV Network Monitor

Enabling proactive management of Low Voltage networks

Overview

PRESense is an AI enabled, edge-computing LV monitor that captures key metrics of network health to support proactive network management strategies for DNOs.

Installed at substations and other supply points on the network, PRESense captures high resolution power flow data. This information can be analysed to identify developing problems on the network and indicate the location of faults.

PRESense transforms granular LV network data into actionable information. These insights allow DNOs to plan effective remedial action including network modification, traditional re-enforcement measures or replacement of cables and transformers.

Benefits

Network icon

Network heath monitoring

PRESense can help identify developing load issues, such as potential overload caused by increasing numbers of EVs and issues caused by distributed generation.

Location icon

Location of complex faults

PRESense gathers data that can be used by Camlin Energyexisting multi-ended and multi-point fault location systems, supporting accurate location of even the most difficult faults.

Cable health icon

Cable health indexing

PRESense can identify, capture and measure key parameters which are used to detect fault precursors on Low Voltage feeder networks being monitored.

Lower data management costs

Edge-enabled PRESense only transmits relevant data, minimising transport and storage requirements and reducing costs of turning raw data into actionable information.

Capability

  • Compact integrated unit can be installed at sub-stations and other supply points on the network
  • Advanced data capture, intelligent triggering and real-time processing enable predictive multi-ended and multi-point fault location
  • AI/ML powered decision engine learns normal network conditions to reduce networked data transport
  • Captured data is made available for diagnosis on remote server via GSM or optional Ethernet communication links
  • Full integration with our Sapient network optimisation service
  • Mobile app supports installation process and facilitates remote reporting

Experience in action

Optimized deployment of LV Monitoring solutions

We offer an optimal strategy to deploy our AI-enabled LV monitor, PRESense to a subset of LV substations.

This allows Network Operators to locate developing faults ahead of time and resolve incidents before they impact customers. This results in a trio of benefits for clients including, LV fault management, asset health and load management.

This is achieved by employing our AI and Machine Learning expertise to analyse various historical industry, socio economic and asset-based data sources to determine the areas of the network that would benefit most from LV monitoring.

Monitoring for proactive management of LV networks: How to maximize business value

During this webinar, we discuss how this theme relates to several areas of primary importance to DNOs and the role of monitoring and LV visibility in proactive network management.

We cover:

  • Reasons to monitor
  • What to monitor
  • Monitoring deployment
  • Where the intelligence should be
