Your digitalization journey
from data to value to action
The Industry 4.0 revolution based on the Internet of Things (IoT)
is motivating many organizations to begin their digital journey across
different industry verticals.
Our solution
We help you ...
• gain transparency across your
electrical distribution assets
• identify optimization strategies
to reduce your operation costs
• better manage risks by identifying
potential asset breakdowns
and failures before they happen
As your trustworthy partner,
we provide ...
• reliable and safe IoT-ready electrical
distribution assets, including
medium- and low-voltage
switchgear
The first step is to connect industry assets like electrical distribution • reliable and secure IoT connectivity
equipment at the field level to a common remote IoT platform through hardware like gateways and edge

NXpower Monitor
A cloud-based application that will launch and accompany
your digital journey in energy distribution
NXpower Monitor provides you with different views for visualizing and monitoring
electrical assets in a substation or substations across multiple locations from anywhere
in the world at anytime.
Transparency thanks to asset summary and operation overview
The asset summary offers you key performance indicators, which
allows you to monitor your assets and helps you identify optimization
potentials for improving availability, energy consumption, CO2 emission
and cost savings. An overview of the status of the individual feeders
help to get fast information what is going on. The additional energy
monitoring view allows you to monitor the energy consumption of
critical loads on a time-series basis and compare it with similar loads

at the same location or across different locations. This enables you
to optimize both your energy costs and your CO2 footprint. The included
documentation view allows you to create your own asset-related central
document repository system that will bring you even more peace of
mind. Important documents will be always available from anywhere
at any time.
Condition monitoring (optional)
The condition monitoring view allows you to monitor the health
status of your asset remotely. This allows you to manage your risks

better, improve operations and maintenance schedules based on
the actual status of the assets rather than their theoretical condition.
The electrical assets can be e.g. switchgear and transformers.
The switchgear monitoring on medium voltage side is based
on temperature monitoring, humidity monitoring, circuit breaker
monitoring and partial discharge monitoring. User can select
individual type of monitoring based on availability of respective
sensors. The medium voltage switchgear can be air insulated
or gas insulated. The transformer monitoring is based on winding Condition monitoring
temperature, oil temperature as well as cooling system monitoring
based on availability of respective sensors on transformer side.
Maintenance view (optional)
The maintenance view allows you to visualize all of the alarms along
with their status and details. It also initiates an e-mail notification
to your designated maintenance engineers with details on the alarms.
This saves them time when it comes to defining the necessary
corrective actions.
Maintenance view
Through these features most of the time manual processes which calls
for visits at site can be drastically reduced. Unplanned asset breakdowns
will be avoided by detecting failures before they lead to a problem.
This increases asset lifetime.
