Grayfox® Underground Cable Sensor

Grayfox® is a cable grid sensor that employs rogowski-coils for non-intrusive current measurements. It is easily installed and automatically connects to GridGuardian® for instant-on functionality. By utilizing the cellular network, Grayfox® sends both measurement data and GPS information to GridGuardian®.

Grayfox® sensor for accurate underground cable monitoring

Our cloud-based monitoring and analytics system, GridGuardian®, works seamlessly with Grayfox® to form a powerful deep learning analytic system for fault location and predictive grid maintenance. With Grayfox®, Safegrid’s Intelligent Grid System® can locate faults with 100m accuracy on a map in just seconds and provide actionable data for predictive maintenance based on 24/7/365 partial discharge detection.

Safegrid’s Intelligent Grid System® is a stand-alone system that doesn’t require any downtime for installation and commissioning, making it easy and fast to install.

Grayfox® - a modern fault indication system
"Thanks to the Safegrid system we were able to eliminate a potentially critical failure from our grid which could have escalated to a fault causing an outage to thousands of customers. We are grateful to Safegrids personnel for helping to draw our attention to this event and we are confident that these types of failures and anomalies will also be detected in the future by Safegrids Intelligent Grid System®."
