Integrate Information |
Establish a central repository accessible across the enterprise. Combine data and systems for efficient reporting and analysis. Eliminate the need to maintain multiple systems and the silos of data generated by disparate systems. |
Data Integrity |
Get real, not inferred, endpoint information. Stop problems that sap revenue and disrupt service such as tampering, chronic sags and swells, energy diversions and orphaned outages. |
Information Advantage |
Resolve customer inquiries quickly by accessing detailed profiles, consumption reports and usage information in real time from call center desktops. TUNet provides the information and tools needed for over-the-phone or web-based troubleshooting. |
Real-Time Response |
Time is held to one second, permitting a utility to execute synchronized measurement and control actions—used for analyzing system performance, determining price strategies, and monitoring power quality—across all or any portion of the network. |
| Domain Set Addressing |
Every TUNet device has a unique ID to ensure communication is with a specific device or groups of devices. A utility can define group addresses. For example, one group can specify the feeder the device is installed on; the second can specify a customer's TOU billing plan; the third can specify the GPS coordinates. Time-synchronized messages can be broadcast to any logical combination of the three categories. This addressing scheme enables a utility to implement flexible TOU plans, detect power losses and monitor power quality. |
