Grid Connect's Smart Power Cord for AWS

Smart Power Cord for AWS Provides Electrical Monitoring

Sept. 8, 2021
Grid Connect’s new offering is ideal for monitoring and controlling pumps, commercial appliances and other applications.

The Smart Power Cord for AWS quickly enables any 110 V or 240 V device to securely connect to an application supported by Amazon’s cloud platform, AWS IoT Core. Built into the Smart Power Cord for AWS is a rules engine, so a machine operator can define, for instance, when to shut off the machine to protect it from burning up. If a manager knows a machine’s steady state is 10 amps, the breaker is 20 amps and the machine begins burning at 15, the cord is set to shut down the machine at 14 amps.

Ideal applications for the Smart Power Cord for AWS are monitoring and controlling pumps, commercial appliances, electric vehicle chargers, electric metering and load shedding.
