Using a real-time, waveform synchronised, broadband, power quality based grid monitoring system designed for the evolving power grid.
VECTO family GPS or PTP synchronised devices are installed at nodes throughout the grid. Each device stores measured parameters in a large on-board SQL like data store and also makes it available via varios SCADA protocols.
Secure IP based communication is used to automatically push recorded data to the central data store called VECTO Grid OS in near real-time. No more manual downolading of data. In the event of communication loss no data will be lost. Upon communication restoration, all unretrieved data will be automatically pushed to the central server.
VECTO Grid OS automatically enriches and assess retrieved data according to international norms and standards and makes it accessible to subscribed users in near real-time via a highly interactive web interface. VECTO Grid OS also supports data import from 3rd party devices. Alarming & Notifications and automated report generation are supported. VECTO Grid OS is fault tolerant and is highly scalable.
A comprehensive, waveform synchronised power quality-based system for grid monitoring & management with benefits across multiple disciplines and business units
Frequency Control Ancillary Services (FCAS) are critical grid services brought about by AEMO to maintain network frequency within a specified range to ensure system stability and minimise the impact of renewables.
VECTO provides a module for contingency FCAS reporting that lets you fulfil compliance reporting with pinpoint levels of accuracy and with a minimum of effort.
A fleet of robust IEC61000-4-30-ED3.0 Class-A power quality based edge-computing measurement devices.
VECTO Grid OS is a cloud-based big data hosting, analysis, visualisation and reporting platform, supporting thousands of VECTO and third party instruments in near real time.
IEC61000-4-30-Ed3.1 Class-A compliant Waveform synchronised Power Quality forms the foundation of the VECTO family of devices.
PMU+ works with VECTO’s power quality features, allowing users to record and stream synchrophasor data following the C37.118-2 (IEEE PMU protocol) standards. The PMU+ module achieves both Class-P and Class-M benchmarks simultaneously.
The VECTO devices’ onboard small signal stability algorithm accurately records and alarms sub-synchronous oscillation events.
VECTO offers a dedicated CSV output that can be directly imported into AEMO’s FCAS verification tool (FCASVT), making verification as simple as a few clicks.
