Short-term interruptions, overcurrents and transients can impair electrical systems and electronic components. If something goes wrong, finding the cause or source of the error quickly and safely is critical.
As part of GridVis software, the Event Browser provides you with a quick overview through graphical analyses of recorded events and transients.
You will obtain an overview of the functions of the GridVis Event Browser on this page.
