Recording the electricity consumed by a circuit..
Measuring electrical values (current, voltage, power, harmonic distortion, etc or analogue values (temperature) to check the installation is working properly.
Checking locally (LEDs, display unit, touch screen, etc) or remotely (LEDs, display unit, PLC, PC, tablet, smart phone, etc): the on/off status of one or more devices and/or circuits any faults such as circuit breaker tripping, min. or max. threshold overrun, etc
Supervision is a computerised control and monitoring technique applied to industrial and electrical processes. In the measurement field, it serves as an umbrella term for functions such as display, monitoring, control, parameter setting, and programming.
A supervision system acquires data—measurements, alarms, status feedback—and integrates process control and remote operation (e.g., circuit-breaker control). It continuously oversees the entire electrical network, ensuring equipment safety, rapid intervention, and uninterrupted service. The collected data on operating status, power distribution, and consumption can then be analyzed to implement effective energy-management solutions.
