How would Cannon Technologies’ solutions improve distribution reliability?

Our solutions use innovative technology and communications to provide a higher resolution of data monitoring than traditional SCADA, plus we enable a powerful new option in the reliability tool kit—the utility customer.

Our Substation Advisor® Information System adds intelligent monitoring & notification to the sub, accessible to planners as well as operations. Remote Power Factor Control identifies probable equipment failures and automatically corrects VAR and Voltage problems on the line.

Targeted Reductions
Our Load Response Center enables instant targeted load reductions anywhere on the system, and enables emergency dispatch of customer-premise stand-by generation. Direct Demand Response units constantly monitor frequency, automatically cutting load during under-frequency conditions. They also prevent connected loads from running for a few minutes directly after a line outage for trouble-free restoration.

Best of all, demand response can be integrated with the substation and distribution automation applications to provide immediate, targeted and automatic load reductions where needed.

Utility Reliability Goals		Cannon Solutions
Prevent unplanned outages caused by resource deficiencies Prevent unplanned outages caused by equipment failure Prevent voltage sag/surge Prevent stress on equipment Faster system restoration		Individually monitor transformers, line segments and delivery points for loading conditions and voltage conditions, automatically calling for additional capacitors, tap changes and load reductions where needed Expose probable non-essential equipment failures Intelligently monitor subs, alert for predicted equipment failures based on high resolution data filtered through predictive maintenance algorithms Provide remote, wireless access to substation equipment status information for line personnel
