The GridAdvisor 3 is the latest installment of electrical grid sensors aiming to provide utility companies with critical data to manage and maintain the electrical grid. The GridAdvisor 3 addresses the new reality of grid management: solar panels, wind power, electric vehicles, and new societal habits and patterns. Its technology helps prevent faults: Rising global temperatures expose the fragility of the grid, but GridAdvisor’s capacity to show the effects of wind, temperature, and power fluctuations on power lines allows utilities to perform preventive maintenance before disastrous fires occur. Grid Advisor 3 takes seconds, not hours to install; using rock climbing-inspired mechanisms, the device snaps and locks itself into place.
