June 24, 2002 – Boise,
ID – Telemetric Corporation, a leading provider
of wireless remote monitoring and control solutions, and Lindsey
Manufacturing, a producer of specialized hardware, tools and equipment
for the electric utility industry, announced a next generation
solution for fault detection, voltage and current sensing complete
with communications. The solution integrates the Lindsey Smart
Pin Current and Voltage Sensor with the Telemetric MicroRTU.
The Lindsey Smart Pin provides a 3-phase
current signal, voltage presence/absence, and faulted circuit
indication. The Telemetric MicroRTU communicates the values of
the Smart Pin over the cellular network with report-by-exception
or can be queried on demand. Access is provided right within the
utility's SCADA system or from a secure web application. Dick
Serocki, Lindsey Manufacturing Product Manager, says “the
Smart Pin combines a traditional fault locator with meaningful
information that can be used to notify the utility of a fault
and its location, it also provides the current readings and presence
or absence of voltage. The typical fault locator has an indicator
that turns red during a fault condition, you find out about the
fault only when your customers call to report the outage. The
integration of the Smart Pin and Telemetric MicroRTU provides
real time information to the utility, which improves customer
service and minimizes revenue loss."
