Features and Benefits
The Guardian is purpose-built to reduce the time, cost, and complexity of residential power quality investigations. Installed directly into the meter socket, it captures data at the point of service, providing accurate insight into voltage conditions, current behavior, and system performance without requiring complex setup. This streamlined installation allows utilities to deploy quickly across multiple locations and begin collecting actionable data immediately.
Optional integrated cellular communication enables remote access to data at any time, eliminating the need to revisit sites to retrieve data. Real-time text and email alerts notify users as soon as events occur, allowing teams to respond only when necessary. This targeted approach significantly reduces unnecessary truck rolls, improves crew efficiency, and lowers operational costs.
The Guardian delivers comprehensive power quality analysis, including voltage, current, power factor, phase angle, harmonics to the 51st order, and advanced waveform capture. It also supports CBEMA and ITIC curve analysis, helping users evaluate how disturbances impact sensitive equipment. By capturing long-term trends, the Guardian provides the complete data needed for accurate root cause analysis.
With PQ Canvass cloud-based software, users can access, analyze, and share data from any device. This improves collaboration, speeds up decision-making, and ensures power quality issues are resolved quickly and effectively.
