DISTRIBUTION SURGE ARRESTER MONITORING

Abstract

Low-Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN) offer new perspectives in deploying Internet of Things (IoT) solutions for DSOs to ensure continuity and quality of supply in a cost-efficient way. This paper describes one of the first IoT industrial solution installed on the electrical distribution network operated by Enedis: a wireless surge arrester monitoring device (WSAM). This paper presents the end-to-end solution, from the measurement capture to the SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition).
