HAZARDS AROUND

While working live in the energized grid, presence of voltage around the workers requires special attention. However, live-line (live working) techniques are widely applied for decades, several accidents in the past prove that the level of safety must be improved to minimize the number and seriousness of injuries in the future.
In the high voltage grid, bare-hand method is a common technique for safe live work. In the surroundings of any energized equipment,...

Exploring the Rise of Cloud-Based BAS for Enhanced Energy Management

Building Automation Systems (BAS) have become a cornerstone for optimizing energy consumption in buildings. Traditionally, BAS have operated as on-premise systems, with hardware and software located within the building itself. However, the recent surge in cloud-based technologies has led to the rise of Cloud-Based BAS (CB-BAS), offering a new paradigm for building energy management. This article explores the advantages of CB-BAS solutions, delves into the impact on building management practices, and addresses security considerations associated with cloud deployments.
