NTENDED USE

 

 
The SMART NAVIGATOR is an overhead faulted circuit indicator that is designed and engineered for 
Smart Grid – Distribution Automation applications. The SMART NAVIGATOR is installed on overhead 
distribution circuits and transmits event based fault information in addition to continuous circuit status 
information. The SMART NAVIGATOR is integrated into an existing Smart Grid system and can 
operate in different WAN environments such as cellular, radio, etc. A pole mounted concentrator, 
either the SMART RECEIVER or SMART CONTROLLER acts as WAN access point.
