A well-functioning data communications network is an essential asset that can help increase safety, quality, and productivity. In this white paper, we describe the four most important cornerstones of designing, implementing and maintaining a truly robust, reliable and resilient network.

27 August 2020 – Switchgear engineering firm NOJA Power today announces nomination as a finalist in the Australian Engineering Excellence Awards for their ARENA supported Synchrophasor project executed in partnership with Australian utilities Energy Queensland and AusNet Services, AEMO and the University of Queensland and Deakin University.

13 August 2020 – Australian switchgear engineering firm today announces the addition of ANSI 32 Directional Power Protection to the suite of features available in the RC10 and RC15 Recloser Controls for OSM Reclosers. This functionality provides engineers with a new method for handling distributed generation protection requirements.

Power grids need to be upgraded to allow for new dynamic loads such as electric vehicles and new unpredictable sources such as renewables. Upgrading the existing static infrastructure to cater for these loads and sources can be prohibitively expensive.

01 July 2020 – In response to the 2019 edition of the Pole Mount Automatic Circuit Recloser standard (IEC 62271-111:2019), a key shift in equipment compliance requirement is the harmonization of test voltages for Wet and Dry Power Frequency tests.
