Commercial and operational simplicity

Megger has been a leader in electrical test and measurement globally for 130 years and has manufacturing in several countries and sales offices across the globe. 

From power generation to the power outlets in your home, Megger products cover almost every application within the Electrical Supply Industry.

Megger has recently launched a new product & service for powerline monitoring. Stretching over several thousands of kilometers in areas across the world, powerlines are exposed to various external influences like extreme weather conditions or even natural disasters. Faults and failures often occur on powerlines, and much time and effort are spent in locating and rectifying these faults in cases where monitoring systems are not in place. The product uses cellular IoT-connectivity to report the powerline status to the operating company.

Cobira’s IoT connectivity solutions are the perfect fit for our needs. With just one provider we can ensure secure powerline monitoring on a global scale that is always connected.
