Micatu's Optical Sensors provide grid operations data (Current, Voltage, Harmonics, Vibrations, Temperatures), using an advanced optical crystal. Micatu's Sensors capture voltage and current at +/- 0.5% accuracy, voltage harmonics to the 250th, current harmonics to the 11th, as well as temperature.

Typically, quotes and proposals are created once the customer's needs are discovered. Understanding the desired configurations and expectations will be very important in creating a solution design.

Using an advanced optical crystal with light, the Sensor captures voltage and current at +/- 0.5% accuracy, voltage harmonics to the 250th, current harmonics to the 11th, as well as temperature. The sensors pass photons, not electrons, mitigating wildfire risk and increasing safety upon installation as the sensors cannot electrocute someone by passing photons.

The grid is undergoing change at a rapid pace and sensing technology must keep up if we are to ensure that our technology is effective and more importantly, safe. As more DER's are added to todays grid, the grid is becoming variable. Traditional equipment such as CT's & PT's are designed for two-directional flow, not bi-directional. Also, if CT's & PT's are overburdened, they will go into failure mode. This creates dangers for sparks, ignitions, explosions and ultimately wildfires. Micatu's optical sensors mitigate wildfire risk as the sensors themselves pass photons, not electrons. They are also helping increase power quality and further grid visibility with data measurements.
