Schneider Electric Power Outage Insight system

Schneider Electric has launched its Power Outage Insight (POI) solution in the Australian market. The crisis prevention and recovery system maximises continuous access to safe electricity across critical power applications. The solution is tailored for a number of sectors where uninterrupted power supply is highly critical including data centres, mining, oil and gas, and health care.

As an integrated solution with no additional software required, Schneider Electric’s POI monitors low-voltage electrical distribution systems and schedules predictive maintenance for minimising unexpected downtime through its intelligent web-based interfaces.

In case of a power failure, the software performs real-time diagnostics to quickly identify the source of the problem and provides concise and easy-to-follow power restoration instructions.

Additionally, the POI solution provides a wireless breaker closing remote control device that allows users to close breakers from a safe distance.

The POI solution is cost effective and easy to install in both greenfield and existing sites for immediate improvement in power reliability. Its embedded database provides traceability of repairs, maintenance and changes to device settings and layout for ease of long-term management.
