HOP Sensors is purpose-built for electric utility operations. Not a general-purpose dashboard. Not a retrofitted IoT platform. Built from the ground up for substation-level SCADA observability.
HOP Sensors streams telemetry from all your substations simultaneously, refreshing every 5 seconds. A single unified view shows anomaly scores, baseline means, frequency, voltage, current, and load — no switching between systems, no manual polling.
The North American grid standard is 60 Hz. Deviations signal stress, generation imbalance, or imminent failure. HOP Sensors gives every substation its own live frequency gauge with configurable WARN and NORMAL thresholds — so your ops team always knows where frequency is drifting before it becomes a NERC incident.
Most ML anomaly systems give you a score and a red light. HOP Sensors gives you the score, the Z-score, the baseline mean, the baseline standard deviation, the Is_Anomaly flag, and the full per-substation audit table. You see exactly why the model flagged something. No mystery, no vendor lock-in on model behavior.
A live geographic map of every substation in your service territory, with load status indicators. When an outage occurs or anomaly is detected, see it geographically — not just as a row in a table. Know instantly which neighborhoods are affected, which feeders are involved, and which sites are adjacent.
EVENTS / ALARMS LIST
HOP Sensors automatically captures state transitions across all feeders — FEEDER_TRIP, OPEN, CLOSE, ALARM, INFO — and correlates them into a live events list. Active outages get their own panel with outage IDs, timestamps, and affected feeder details.
VOLTAGE (kV) + POWER (MW) — SUB001
Every telemetry value is backed by a full time-series history. Voltage and power time-series plots let you see not just where your grid is now, but the trajectory that got it there — essential for distinguishing normal operational variation from developing faults.
Dashboard and all panels update every 5 seconds. Configurable down to 1 second for high-stakes monitoring scenarios.
From anomaly detection to alert delivery. Measured end-to-end across our simulated multi-substation test environment.
Cloud-native architecture with redundant ingestion, processing, and storage layers. No single point of failure.
Horizontally scalable ingestion layer. Add substations without configuration changes or performance degradation.
Push data from any SCADA source over HTTPS. Your team or integrator writes a forwarder — we provide the API spec and sample scripts.
Type II certification in progress. Zero-trust architecture, end-to-end encryption, role-based access control.
No rip-and-replace. Your team or systems integrator forwards data from your existing SCADA infrastructure to our REST API over HTTPS — nothing inbound to your network.
Legacy SCADA systems, general-purpose dashboards, and enterprise historian platforms weren't built for real-time cloud-native grid observability.
