Reliability
Entellisys provides unprecedented equipment reliability and power distribution system protection through a highly simplified system design that:

Reduces Components & Wiring
The centralized architecture drastically reduces components and wiring by deploying hardened, tested multifunction devices (CTs, PTs, etc.), and providing protection, control, monitoring, metering, and diagnostics through software.

Reduces Risk of Failure
Entellisys' simplified design comprises two separate but synchronized systems for protection, control, monitoring, metering and operations. With Entellisys, there is no single point of failure.

Provides Backup Protection
Entellisys provides multiple levels of backup for protection and control: the system's advanced protection and control are implemented through the central architecture; the system's 'messenger nodes' act as backup trips, providing instantaneous protection in the event both the redundant systems should fail; and specific circuit breakers can be designated as backups. In addition, Entellisys has dual-control power sources and uninterruptible power supplies.

Eliminates Downtime
Advanced warning functionality features real-time monitoring and diagnostics, with reports issued based on user-set parameters so that you are informed of situations before they become problems.

The system can also issue an alarm and trigger a waveform capture whenever the current for a particular load rises above a user-defined level. Ground faults can be easily identified and corrected, because Entellisys can identify the phase and location of the feeder breaker circuit where the ground fault exists.

Offers Better, Less Costly Approach to Maintenance
With Entellisys, maintenance is based on actual, recorded and reported mechanical and electrical usage rather than on a fixed calendar.
