Power affects production deadlines, machine life cycle, business reliability (that leads to customer dissatisfaction) and client retention and causes machine breakdown. These issues arewidely knownand regretted across all industries, butlittle remedy is available to rectify the same. One of the main reasons for that is the lack of a full diagnosis of electrical condition of a plant drawn out in detail including plant wide view of poor grounding, isolation, load distribution, incoming power quality inspection and more. Power sensors are available but at present, the cost of data modeling and connecting the sensors in PLC that can do full electrical diagnosis of the plant runs in to several crores of rupees.

Prophecy Sensorlytics (US)has developedcost effective sensors for electrical diagnosis of plants. This system is capable of tapping voltage and current from different locations simultaneously 24x7 for years in a manufacturing environment and produces analytics of sag, swell, harmonics, unbalanced loads, poor ground condition and all power quality related parameters.

Zreyas India, (Indian subsidiary of Prophecy Sensorlytics) specializes in the Internet of Things (IoT) based fault diagnosis in a plant that includes machine failures as well as power quality analyzing sensors. These are available as machine wearable gadgets with remote tracking features. They track power supply connection of a plant and collect all related data. This data is thereafter stored in a cloud server and analyzed with the help of a processor in real time. Owing to the use of cloud server, the system storespower issue history up to two years from all part of the globe. Power sensors are meant to be installed in the phase lines for tracking connectivity issues.

Power quality monitoring sensors currently available in Indiaare usually imported from European and Asian firms and are expensive. Prophecy Sensorlyticsoffers cost effective power monitoring sensors for Indian manufacturing industryat five percent of the cost companies have to currently bear. It started its Indian operations with Zreyas Indiato provide low cost, locally manufactured sensor systemsto Indian industries.
