The Smart-Gap improves the performance and reliability of power line carrier communications by minimizing the impact of any surge-induced loss of carrier signal, also known as carrier holes. The Smart-Gap operates faster than traditional spark-gap solutions, extinguishing surges in less than 0.5 msec. to minimize any signal loss. The maintenance-free Smart Gap is an ideal […]

Revenue meter quantifies power quality, identifies anomalies on electric grids
The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) has completed a performance assessment of the JEMStar II revenue meter from AMETEK Power Instruments. The JEMStar II is designed to accurately monitor power quality. The meter measures steady state power quality and identifies power quality anomalies on electric grids. It detects voltage sags and swells, harmonics, transients, flicker […]
