A synchronised view of the grid for a low total cost of ownership

The transformation of the power grid demands an evolution in monitoring & management.

By placing processing power at the point of measurement, VECTO makes grid-wide, synchronised comparisons possible, allowing engineers to focus on a specific point on the grid or many points at once. Instant notifications are sent the instant an event occurs, with high resolution recording and automated grouping and matching for post analysis.

VECTO provides the functionality of five systems in one for a cost effective, scalable and flexible solution that integrates seamlessly with your existing hardware.

Through advances in edge computing, big data analysis & data visualisation, VECTO delivers a comprehensive view across more than 9,000 simultaneous parameters.
