EXACTER® Outage-Avoidance System
Press FAQ and Fact Sheet |
What is EXACTER?
EXACTER is a power outage-avoidance system used by electrical utilities to identify power line equipment problems before an outage occurs.
Why is EXACTER a relevant,
newsworthy product?
Power outages and power grid reliability are the top mandate in the electrical utility industry.
6,000,000 outages occur in the U.S. each year.
Outages have a $79 billion impact on the U.S. economy and a $750 million direct impact on electric utilities.
Experts agree that outages will only increase in the years ahead due to the aging of our electrical distribution system.
