KEARNY, NJ — (Marketwire) — 06/26/12 — Power Survey Company, the leader in contact voltage testing and strategic utility asset management, today launched GridHealth, a comprehensive, turnkey service providing customers with X-ray like visibility into large, inaccessible areas of their underground electric systems.
“Before you can improve the health and reliability of aging electric systems, you must first identify their most basic weaknesses,” said David Kalokitis, Chief Technology Officer of Power Survey. “Our unique mobile technologies have detected more than 80,000 electric distribution cable faults for customers in North America, driving measurable improvements in safety, reliability, energy efficiency, and cost for utilities and ratepayers.”
Unlike utility asset inspection programs which are unable to test 95% of buried cable and equipment, Power Survey-s unique suite of technologies test entire underground utility systems for faults and deficiencies. By detecting, analyzing, and mitigating a broad range of secondary faults, Power Survey-s GridHealth service provides clients:
GridHealth has identified more than 80,000 customer validated underground system faults, averting countless reliability and public/worker safety threats and eliminating the need for costly and ineffective manual asset inspections.
GridHealth is an intelligent capital and maintenance planning tool, which complements many utility smart-grid initiatives. By detecting and analyzing system weaknesses, GridHealth provides actionable insight into where and when failures will strike next.
GridHealth is a key component of successful energy efficiency programs, dramatically reducing unnecessary energy losses and saving thousands of megawatts of energy.
All GridHealth data is captured, managed, compiled, tracked, analyzed, and reported in real time using Power Survey-s cutting-edge data management systems.
