Utilities recognize that, when it comes to service outages, the bar has been raised. Customers, regulators, media and public officials have significantly higher expectations from their utility as to the reliability of their service, the effectiveness of its outage restoration, and the quality of information and communication they receive from their utility. Today's utilities require a next-generation outage management system to:
Electra OMS™ is a next-generation, state-of-the-art outage management solution that empowers utilities to better manage all areas of their outage restoration processes; minimize their outage response times; keep customers, management and regulators well-informed about the scope, status and forecast for outage restoration efforts; and improve overall system reliability. Electra OMS equips utilities with a solution that enables them to efficiently and effectively assign work to field crews and to improve outage response times.
The following is a list of Electra OMS components:
In addition, Electra OMS can be efficiently integrated with other utility systems such as:
Electra OMS can be easily expanded to include Spectra DMS modules such as Volt/VAR Control and FLISR due to its integrated design. Each of these solutions functionally integrate with Electra OMS, utilizing the same user interface and system model and maintaining the same look and feel, allowing the operator to seamlessly utilize any or all of the OSI ADMS capabilities.
Electra OMS is a next-generation, state-of-the-art outage management solution that empowers utilities to better manage their outage response times; keep customers, management and regulators well informed about the scope, status and forecast of restoration efforts; and improve overall system reliability. Electra OMS also allows the assignment of work to field technicians.
Spectra eMap is the operational model of the distribution system and the fundamental component of DMS, OMS and other applications. It provides real-time connectivity models and advanced visualization to enable operators to monitor and control the distribution system and make operational decisions.
OpenGIS provides a standard configuration interface to the utility's GIS system to retrieve network model and system maps (electrical, geographical, etc.). OpenGIS APIs are designed to allow interfacing to common GIS products and can be tailored to your specific needs. OpenGIS supports incremental updates of changes to the model on a daily or weekly basis.
Spectra DMS encompasses a comprehensive and integrated set of powerful electric and distribution system management solutions accessible through a common user interface. Spectra DMS monitors the performance of the distribution system, allowing users to anticipate and respond to potential overloading and under-voltage situations with the best solutions, before they become critical.
