SERVICES
RF & IR OVERHEAD LINE
ASSESMENTS
Overhead distribution and transmission line assessments use mobile sensing technology for rapid RF detection across the grid – followed by ultrasonic and IR evaluations at the pole to
identify pre-fail outage threats. Data deliverables include street address, GPS coordinates, KMZ
files, CSV files, photographs, and video of problematic findings.
OMS ANALYSIS FOR RELIABILITY CIRCUIT TARGETING
One of the most valuable strategic offerings Sicuro has is an analysis of your organization’s outage sources. The deliverable will help identify the circuits with the most potential for improvement in areas of interruption minutes, outage frequency, customers/members
impacted, and customer complaints.
NEW CONSTRUCTION
QA/QC COMMISSIONING
Members of the Sicuro Team have been active in performing quality assurance commissioning
services for some of America’s largest utilities. These assessments allow you to hold
contractors responsible for poor workmanship while providing a quality benchmark for the
system at inception.
RAPID DEPLOYMENT FOR BREAKER TRIPS & CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS
Sicuro teams will deploy within 48 hours to address invisible or
hard-to-find breaker trips, intermittents, flickering sources, HAM radio interference, or customer complaints. This an affordable solution for even small Municipals and Cooperatives.
POLE FIRE THREAT IDENTIFICATION & MITIGATION
The number one cause of pole fires is current leakage and tracking from overhead components. Sicuro line assessments identify and pinpoint the location of these threats for easy removal
before a pole fire ignition.
