Utility customers are very demanding and require 100% uptime on services. It is unacceptable for the lights to go out and if they do, it is expected that power will be reinstated in a timely manner. A reliable communication system is vital to restoring power in an acceptable time. 

Most power generating facilities, regardless if the power is generated by coal, gas, nuclear, solar, wind or hydro will have a communication network that consists of a number of remote sites. These remote sites are typically located in areas that require a lengthy drive.  The necessity to remotely monitor and control equipment from a central location becomes increasingly important.

TASC Systems provides wireless site monitoring and control systems to monitor the pieces of equipment that make up a remote site and send that information over radio, IP, PSTN or cellular to a central location. The timely notification that power is down, there is an HVAC failure or the generator is running low on fuel will prepare you to proactively respond to the alarm.

TASC Systems’ remote site monitoring system can work along side a SCADA system playing a significant role in automating the monitoring and control of your remote facilities. TASC site monitoring systems utilize wireless and wired modes of communication providing a very robust, reliable and cost-effective solution.

Application Note: Remote Site Monitoring Helps Keep The Lights “ON” 24/7
