Innovative monitoring and control technologies for electricity network and system operators

RTUs and Smart Sensors

The increase in embedded generation, changes in load patterns and adoption of electric vehicles are just some of the reasons that power flows, voltage profiles and constraints on the distribution network are becoming more complex and no longer match traditional models used by network planners and design teams.

Taking action to keep the grid stable requires that operators have visibility of what is happening out on the network.

Nortech technology components provide network and system operators the ability to see deep into the network beyond the reach of traditional SCADA systems.

Products

REFLEX

Retrofit Distribution Automation for Ring Main Units

A small, low cost, powerful retrofit integrated actuator suitable for existing switchgear types. No additional RTU required. Installed in minutes with direct communications to the control room SCADA/DMS systems.

PRE-FIX

Real-time HV Pre and Post-Fault Location

PRE-FIX is a fault location solution which provides real-time pre- and post-fault location and classification. Trialled and tested on HV networks, Pre-Fix is effective on both overhead and underground cable as well as being transferable into the LV and EHV domain.

PQ Panels

Remote Power Quality Monitoring Offered in a Variety of Form Factors

A range of remote power quality monitoring solutions are available to suit your needs, including retrofit panels, loose fit and portable ‘plug & play’ arrangements.

ENVOY

Powerful Communications Hub

The ENVOY™ platform provides the asset owners and operators with a powerful, flexible, data processing and communications hub.

Connected equipment is polled for data, data is transformed and stored as called for by the application and then forwarded to central systems for use.

Underground Cable FPIs

Fault Passage Indicators for Underground Cable Systems

Our cable fault passage indicators (FPIs) seamlessly integrate fault detection, load and power measurement, RTU functions, power supplies, communication and mounting enclosure - all in a single optimised device.

With the option for 4G/2G communications these FPIs can deliver a native DNP3 link direct to the control room as well as over-the-air firmware updates and configuration management from iHost

Overhead Line FPIs

Fault Passage Indicators for Overhead Line Networks

Smart Navigator 2.0 fault passage indicator (FPI) provides directional overcurrent and earth fault indication, conductor temperature monitoring and directional power flow detection, all within a 1kg self-powered overhead line sensor.

The innovative clamping mechanism enables field teams to install FPIs on live overhead lines up to 12 meters high using a hot stick, eliminating interruption to customer supply.

Micro RTUs

Versatile micro RTUs for remote site monitoring

The Nexus family of micro RTUs provide the asset operator with economical, reliable, remote site monitoring for a wide range of applications out in the real world.

Offering a versatile mix of inputs, power supply options, local communications and 4G/2G remote communications they can be used to monitor alarms and data from almost any equipment in any location.
