Energy & Infrastructure

Your electrical cabinets, no longer blind.

One edge controller on the DIN rail turns a feeder pillar or a technical cabinet into a measured, controllable asset — and leaves the person standing in front of it in charge.

A cabinet tells you nothing until something goes wrong.

Consumption shows up on the bill, a tripped breaker shows up as a dark street, an open door shows up never. Meanwhile every line in there is measurable.

Energy

Anomalies found in the invoice

Months later, with no way to tell which line caused them.

Faults

Reported by citizens

A protection trips and the network finds out in the morning.

Access

Doors nobody logs

No record of who opened what, and when.

Scale

Dozens of sites, no single view

Each cabinet is its own island, with its own habits.

What it does

Measure, watch, switch — and keep going without the cloud.

The controller reads the meters over RS-485, watches the protections through digital inputs, and drives contactors through its outputs. Everything it decides, it can also decide alone.

The inside of a cabinet: DIN rail with controller, protections and terminals

Inside a controlled cabinet — installed site, Italy

01MID three-phase metering — energy, power, voltage, current and cos φ per line, with hourly history
02Alarms on main breaker trip, mains loss, earth leakage above a threshold, phase loss, consumption over threshold and door opening — each time-stamped. With the battery option the cabinet reports its own blackout instead of simply going quiet
03Switching of breakers and contactors from the platform or on an astronomical calendar
04Local override: whoever works on site can lock the cabinet out of remote control
05Autonomous logic and hardware watchdog — the cabinet behaves the same with the link down
06Reports and API: PDF or Excel on a schedule, events on the map, open interfaces for your own systems
07Full event history — every command, status change, door opening and disconnection is recorded, so what happened can be reconstructed afterwards rather than argued about
08Position recorded at installation by GNSS: each cabinet lands on the map where it really is, which is what keeps an inventory of dozens or hundreds of them honest

On the screen

What an operator actually sees.

A web interface for PC and tablet, with permissions per user. These are screens from a working installation — the cabinet module of the platform, not a mock-up.

The cabinet page in the platform: device status, energy, digital inputs, main and auxiliary output, power per phase and the meter on the RS-485 bus

One cabinet: status, clock, energy, digital inputs, outputs with their state, power per phase and the meter on the bus

Aggregated statistics across the selected cabinets, with export to CSV, Excel and PDF

Energy across the cabinets you select, over the period you choose — exported as CSV, Excel or PDF

Active power per phase over two days, drawn from the meter readings

Active power per phase, hour by hour — the shape of the load, not a monthly total

The configuration screen: astronomical clock with dawn and dusk offsets, digital inputs with alarm text, digital outputs with default state

Configuration of one cabinet, from the browser

Set up from the browser, not from a van.

Astronomical clock with offsets on dawn and dusk, a name and an alarm text for each digital input, a default state for each output, thresholds and permissions. Configuration and changes are made remotely — the visit to the cabinet is the installation, not the commissioning.

Search, filter and sort across the estate

With dozens of cabinets the list is the tool: find the one that is alarming, act on it, and see the result.

Permissions per user

Who may look, who may command and who may configure — the same platform for the technician and for the person who signs the report.

Fitting what is already there

Designed for cabinets that already exist.

Most of this market is retrofit: a cabinet built years ago, still working, that has to become measurable without being replaced.

01 · Retrofit

The cabinet stays where it is

The controller goes on the DIN rail beside what is already installed. Where a line cannot be opened, the meters are fitted with split-core current transformers clamped around the existing conductors.

02 · Modular

I/O and RS-485 devices you already use

Digital and analogue I/O modules, meters and sensors on the RS-485 bus. The number of measured lines and watched contacts follows the cabinet, not a fixed product.

03 · Adaptable

Firmware and interfaces to your requirement

Firmware behaviour can be developed for a specific requirement, and the platform exposes APIs and standard protocols so the cabinets can be managed inside a system you already run.

Safety first

Remote control that a technician can always take back.

A cabinet is a place where people work with their hands. Every remote command can be blocked on site, and the controller says so in the platform.

Local lock-out

Maintenance mode on the cabinet takes priority over anything sent from the platform.

Signed firmware, TPM 2.x

The controller verifies what it runs, and keeps its keys in hardware.

Sub-metering for tenants, technical alarms, one view per portfolio.

Before you commit

Try it on one real cabinet.

Reading about a control system tells you less than a fortnight of watching one of your own cabinets on a screen. We set up a pilot on a live installation and you judge it on your own data.

A configured pilot

One cabinet of yours, instrumented and set up with us — not a demo account with somebody else's numbers.

The dashboard, fully active

Live status, alarms and commands, with the permissions you would use in service.

Reports generated for you

The consumption and event reports the platform produces, on your own lines.

Support while it runs

From the first configuration onwards, remotely. A few days are usually enough to tell whether it is worth extending.

Tell us how many cabinets, and what is inside them.

Lines, meters, protections and how they are fed: enough for us to say what can be measured and what can be switched.
