Solutions Offered

  • Traction power distribution monitoring and control systems for Railways, Metros, and Light-rail 25kVAC, 2x25kVAC, 750VDC traction systems.

    Traction power distribution is related to delivery of electric power to locomotives from grid substations. The control system is deployed for real-time monitoring and control of the power network, along with energy auditing facilities.

  • Non-traction power distribution monitoring and control systems for Railways, Metros, and Light-rail.

    Non-traction power distribution is like an electric utility distribution network related to delivery of power to campus, facility or station, workshops and administrative buildings. The control system is deployed for real-time monitoring and control of the power network, along with energy auditing facilities.

  • Centralized energy management over an entire campus or facility, or covering railway operating zones and geographical boundaries. This includes
    • Real-time monitoring of energy generation, purchase, and drawls
    • Aggregation of loads based of geography, power utility, etc.
    • Forecasting of day-ahead demand
    • Demand scheduling with load despatch centres
  • Telecom equipment monitoring and reporting
    • Centralized fault reporting system interfacing with different telecom subsystems such as SDH, FOTS, CCTV, Master Clock, Radio, Access Control, Building Management, UPS, PIDs etc.
  • Integrated Power + Telecom SCADA Solution
