Power Xpert FMX Medium-Voltage Switchgear System - optimized with SASensor for Tomorrow's Smart Grid.

Hengelo . . . As one of the leading manufacturers of components, systems and solutions for electrical engineering and automation, Eaton's Electrical Sector is launching new Power Xpert FMX Medium-Voltage Switchgear System - optimized with SASensor for Tomorrow's Smart Grid. FMX is an innovative and compact switchboard system with plug-in type circuit-breakers. The system is suitable for use up to 24 kV and was specially developed for use in the supply grids of electricity suppliers and for connecting industrial and supply companies. The FMX can be custom fitted with different digital systems for protection and remote control tasks.

By adapting the SASensor products from Locamation, the FMX is easy to protect and control. In this way, it is easy to measure the power, to monitor the voltage quality, to localize faults, and to obtain more accurate data. The system is therefore ideally suited for use in current energy networks as well as electricity grids (smart grids) in the future. Due to the simple architecture of the SASensor system, future upgrades or replacements of a CCU can be carried out easily without a major modification of the base.

SASensor offers the following functions:

  • Alarm & event handling
  • Protection
  • Revenue metering (kWh measurement)
  • Accurate data acquisition
  • Remote control and local control (LCD system)
  • Power quality monitoring
  • Determination of fault location
  • IEC 61850 compliance
