Introduction The i-Sense Voltage Sag Detector captures and records voltage disturbances on
the electric power service, as well as long-term voltage trends. Voltage
disturbances are the most common power quality (PQ) problems and may
include voltage sags (dips), swells, or interruptions and outages. Many different
mains voltages are utilized internationally and the i-Sense can be easily
configured to operate with most of them.
The i-Sense detector is an integral part of the i-Grid voltage monitoring network
that enables the reporting and alerting service. Operation of the i-Sense requires
daily communication with the i-Grid servers via the Internet. Instructions for
setting up an Internet connection are included in this Guide.
