The solution for ensuring stability in the low‑voltage grid is the combination of the ConnectPoint LVM Box and the openKONSEQUENZ Low Voltage Cockpit. ConnectPoint integrates both components efficiently into any system landscape.
To meet the challenge of maintaining grid stability amid a growing number of consumers and generators, grid operators are increasingly digitalizing their low‑voltage networks. For full grid transparency, ConnectPoint provides the field‑proven hardware component: the ConnectPoint LVM Box. It works seamlessly with the openKONSEQUENZ Low Voltage Cockpit. Using the data collected by the LVM Box, the cockpit can detect bottlenecks and initiate countermeasures to prevent overloads.
How the openKONSEQUENZ Low Voltage Cockpit works
The openKONSEQUENZ Low Voltage Cockpit processes and enriches measurement data from the low‑voltage grid and visualizes it in real time. The software displays current load levels and identifies potential overloads based on predefined thresholds. Exceeding these thresholds triggers alarms that initiate measures such as temporarily dimming individual consumer systems. These measures to relieve the grid can be executed manually or automatically by the software. The solution incorporates regulated fairness rules for load reduction and automates mandatory regulatory reporting.
openKONSEQUENZ – an idea built for the future
The openKONSEQUENZ cooperative brings together grid operators, software providers, service providers, and research institutions to jointly develop open, modular, and secure software solutions. As an open‑source platform, it ensures seamless integration into existing systems, high quality standards, scalability, and professional maintenance. Thanks to its modular architecture, the software can be flexibly adapted to future requirements. The use of open standards and collaborative development reduces costs and creates future‑proof solutions for its members.
Seamless integration for a smart low‑voltage grid
ConnectPoint specializes in the digitalization of low‑voltage grids and integrates the openKONSEQUENZ Low Voltage Cockpit seamlessly into existing system landscapes. With extensive expertise in both hardware components and the cockpit itself, ConnectPoint delivers efficient and practical solutions.
The ConnectPoint team will present samples, demos, and information on functionality and application areas at E‑World in Hall 5, Booth 5A‑121.
