Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Real time data is produced electronically and distributed to display computers in customers operation centres. Major uses of the data service are Electrical Power Utilities. By knowing the location, intensity, speed and direction of storms, a proactive response sequence is used to minimise the impact of the storm to the customers assets. These responses have enabled reduction in unplanned outages due to storms of up to 30%. Significant supply losses are avoided. Accuracy of the lightning stroke enables damage to be located quickly. In rural areas, cases of days to hours, have been noted. Cost savings and improvements to utility customer service make a lightning data stream a very important tool.
