The MV Overhead Phase Coupler is MainNet's inductive coupler, used for connecting PLUS system medium-voltage units to the overhead cables of a medium-voltage grid. The coupler induces the broadband signal onto the medium-voltage powerlines.
Key Features
- Designed for up to 125 kV BIL powerline rates (basic impulse insulation level)
- Simple installation
- Small footprint
- Medium voltage (MV) grid BPL communication
- US and European network topologies
