Reduce hardwired cabling on switchgear by connecting to intelligent devices, no matter which standard protocol you have.
The high reliability on digital communication improves the information flow from the devices and additional electrical measurement equipment can be removed.
Simpler installations and reduced automation system are easier to maintain, and ready-made object libraries for electrical equipment reduce the engineering efforts.
In addition, 800xA electrical control system allows the asset management strategies to be extended to electrical equipment. The result is reduced plant downtime and an optimal level of production.

Complete substation information brought to the control room enables proactive action and appropriate decisions. Remote maintenance allows faster troubleshooting and creates a much safer environment, removing people from electrical danger.
Fail tracking and prevention is an easy achievement by using System 800xA History, diagnostics and reports can be done on all levels.
Avoid blackouts and accidental shutdowns with a complete Power Management Solution.

A complete database for the electrical control system delivers a clear picture of the energy distribution throughout the plant. Adding this to the production information allows new energy-saving opportunities to be explored and existing reduction programs to be enhanced.
An increase in power consumption by a unit or area can quickly be remedied.
Better visibility into power consumption and real-time energy usage and cost allows for easier energy audits and benchmarking.
