Grid Monitoring

The WAGO Grid Monitoring App: Relevant Grid Parameters and Expansion Strategy Optimization at a Glance

In the foreseeable future, the number of distributed loads and generators is set to explode. Stabilizing grids is becoming more and more challenging. Transparency about the state of the low-voltage grid is becoming more and more important and requires fundamental monitoring.

Visualization and Monitoring for the Low-Voltage Grid

Whether in existing or newly installed substations, the WAGO Grid Monitoring solution keeps an eye on the processes at all times. And all this functionality requires no programming – just simple parameter setting. Operation in a closed network is also an available option to guarantee high application security. The intuitive visualization provides detailed overviews, including precise time information, of the currents, transformer load and output data. For even greater transparency, optional load flow analysis is also available for purchase to calculate voltages and currents throughout the entire distribution grid.

Benefits at a Glance

Commissioning via QR Code

Easy commissioning of controller applications via QR code scan: Examples like projects planned with multiple distributed controllers are where the WAGO Solution Platform really shines. With the WAGO app, a controller can be commissioned in no time by simply scanning the device code and QR code.

Equipped to Meet Any Demands

The Perfect Combination:

The WAGO Grid Gateway Application and WAGO Grid Monitoring

The WAGO Grid Gateway application is the efficient data hub in substations. It collects data from various sources and passes it to other systems seamlessly. The controller application plays a crucial role in integrating information into higher-level systems. At the same time, the WAGO Grid Monitoring app allows comprehensive processing of the collected data, providing condition information derived from substations and the low-voltage grid.

Section 14a of the German Energy Industry Act

In a changing energy landscape, Section 14a of German Energy Industry Act (EnWG) plays a crucial role. This section set the requirements for low-voltage data that is useful for the grid. For compliance with Section 14a, the combination of the WAGO Grid Gateway application and WAGO Grid Monitoring provides precise low-voltage data that is useful for the grid.
