Get Impedance Statistics API

This API fetches and delivers impedance statistics to a customer's data lake/business system. It can be used for the following use cases:

  • Impedance statistics are the best indicator of the health of the wire between the distribution transformer and the meter. Poor connections increase the impedance and create more significant voltage drops which are seen by the utility customer as lights flickering. The goal is to proactively discover and resolve these cases before a consumer notifies the utility because it is less expensive to proactively plan and resolve high impedance issues.

  • There is also a safety benefit to correcting high impedance issues because as the connection degrades, it can create enough heat to cause a fire or break the connection and create an open live connection.

  • A utility customer calls their customer service representative (CSR) to complain about lights dimming or other impedance issues. While on the phone, the CSR checks the latest impedance values for that specific customer.
