Accusense is G&W Electric’s patented line of high-accuracy sensors designed to provide precise current and voltage measurement. These sensors help utilities improve grid reliability, optimize power delivery, and support smart grid applications.
A high voltage sensor provides accurate monitoring of medium- and high-voltage systems, ensuring utilities can detect issues, optimize load management, and enhance overall grid safety and efficiency.
Accusense voltage sensors are commonly used in underground switchgear, pole-mounted equipment, substations, and reclosers. They provide reliable voltage data for protection, measurement, and power quality monitoring.
While the terms are sometimes used interchangeably, a voltage sensor specifically measures voltage levels, whereas an electric sensor can include combined current and voltage measurement functions. Accusense® products are available in both forms to meet different application needs.
Yes, Accusense high voltage sensors are designed for versatility. They can be installed in new switchgear as well as retrofit projects, providing utilities with flexibility when modernizing existing systems.
