Partnering with National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), EGM is advancing Accurate Fault Detection and Location (AFLD) to provide utilities momentary and sustained fault locations. This application helps utilities reduce SAIDI metrics by as much as 15%, which can be worth $50k-$500k per SAIDI minute. With this application the utility has the ability to detect and locate sustained and momentary faults. Momentary faults are leading indicators of sustained outages. Early detection of and elimination of momentary faults will increase grid reliability and can help prevent wildfires due to vegetation encroachment. Improved reliability also makes the grid more resilient which means during major events the grid is less likely to experience long duration outages. Public safety is also improved by cutting power to high impedance faults that may pose a problem locating the source of the <a href="http://outage.

EGM’s Dynamic Line Ratings (DLR) application and Asset Health Monitoring (AHM) provide visibility into the overall health of the electric transmission grid and the performance of the conductors, to keep the grid optimized. DLR provides real-time conductor thermal measurements, two-week conductor capacity forecasts, ensures grid safety and reliability, accelerates interconnection of DERs, and reduces transmission congestion and curtailments. Asset Health Monitoring (AHM) informs the utility of the conductor’s sag and line safety clearances. It can alert the utility when lines are slapping or galloping and can be correlated with weather and wind speeds to help the utility predict what may then become a sustained <a href="http://outage.
