Optisense Network selects Texas Instruments embedded processing and analog technology as the preferred solution for its primary measuring units (PMU). The primary measuring units (PMU) can be configured for primary metering, distribution automation, outage restoration, energy efficiency and power quality. The combination of Optisense’s optical sensors and PMUs provides utilities with greater grid security and reliability as well as increased visibility for faster power outage response. Utilities are able to realize optimized power flows that increase capacity and energy-efficiency, helping recover 25 percent of total load loss. Combination of Optical sensors and dual processors on a single chip provide power line measurements (voltage and current) in digital format, giving the processor flexibility for system wide grid reliability and efficiency. With the integration of TI’s C2000TM MCU and analog technology, Optisense’s highly accurate smart grid solution can execute real-time measurement, analysis and control…
