The ICONTech Grid Measurement System (GMS)<\/strong> is a software-configurable multi-purpose device for capturing and distributing rich power quality measurement data from substations and other grid assets. We currently supply it with a choice of 2 software configurations: A Power Quality Analyzer (PQA) configuration, or a Phase Measurement Unit (PMU) configuration.<\/p>\n

The function of the ICONTech GMS can change as the needs of the grid change. At its core it provides full access to the streaming waveform data from two independent 3-phase busses for online monitoring, inline processing and local storage. The input voltage and current channels use high-speed, high-resolution converters that sample at up to 1,000 samples\/cycle at 24-bit resolution (sufficient to calculate to the 100th harmonic at 50 Hz). You can configure the ICONTech GMS to intelligently select which data to monitor, store, or transmit to reduce storage and bandwidth requirements.<\/p>\n

Power utilities are undergoing a period of technology transition and evolution. A hybrid, customisable device like the ICONTech GMS can bridge legacy systems with newer technologies, allowing power engineers to selectively migrate outdated systems with minimal disruption.<\/p>\n
