What is a Power management solution

1. What is a Power management solution? By Netrack

2. Power management solutions helps in ensuring that your electrical distribution systems, along with the assets attached to them, operate in a safe, dependable, efficient, and compliant manner. They can assist you by:  • Improve uptime by avoiding unplanned outages  • Reduce energy costs  • Optimize maintenance and get more life from electrical assets  • Simplify gaining and maintaining compliance to standards, regulations, and legislation for things such as energy management, carbon emissions, and power quality  • Recover from outages more quickly and safely  • Avoid electrical fires and prevent shock  • Why do you require power management? There is an easy solution. It is because of the complexity increase in electrical systems.  • There are more loads and more power-sensitive processes. Both distributed power sources and loads come in a wider variety. The size and power density and the criticality of many types of facilities are growing. The requirement for thorough monitoring to keep track of current electrical conditions throughout your power distribution system is much needed.  • Who use power management techniques?  

3. Any building whose operations depend on the infrastructure for electrical distribution supplying reliable power at all times.  In fact, any company that wants to maintain its operational effectiveness and competitiveness. This can include both substantial and important facilities (such as hospitals, data centres, airports, telecom, and so forth) as well as manufacturing facilities, office buildings, and campuses.  How does it help your facility?  The most recent power management solutionsprovide extensive capability to address several crucial applications pertinent to all kinds of facilities.  Power and energy analysis technologies have significantly improved in recent years, making them easier for facility teams to use. Operations and facility teams may now identify opportunities and threats more quickly and take action.  Here is a quick overview of the applications that your team would typically handle with a power management system: 

4. Electrical system health and efficiency  • You can increase efficiency, prevent overloads, and spot any potential problems in loads like motors by continuously checking that the three phases of electricity are balanced on every section of your distribution system. Grounding issues and energy waste can be found by checking for excessive neutral current. Another metric that needs to be assessed is power factor, as a low number suggests energy wastage. You might need to take corrective action, like installing a capacitor bank, because it can also result in a fee on your electricity account.  • Capacity management  • Finding circuits that are more highly loaded or, worse yet, at risk of overloading and tripping breakers can be done by analysing historical trends. When running a critical facility with backup power systems, like hospitals or data centres, this is very important. Additionally, you can determine if any circuits have unused additional capacity that can be employed for load balancing or to affordably handle dynamic situations with frequent facility or process expansions.
