Core Pain Points & Challenges in Southeast Asia's Power System

  1. Harsh Climatic Conditions:
    • High Temperature & Humidity:​ Accelerates insulation aging, causes equipment corrosion, challenging long-term stability.
    • Heavy Rainfall & Frequent Flooding:​ Threatens equipment sealing, insulation performance, and outdoor operational safety.
    • Coastal Salt Spray/Corrosion:​ Easily erodes metal components, directly impacting equipment lifespan and reliability.
  2. Infrastructure Development Disparities:
    • Coexistence of Old & New Grids:​ Requires solutions compatible with varying substation construction standards and retrofitting needs for aging equipment.
    • Diverse Power Standards:​ Must satisfy various national electrical codes and certification requirements (e.g., IEC 61869, ANSI, IEEE).
  3. Cost-Effectiveness & Operational Efficiency:
    • High Cost-Effectiveness Demand:​ Market is highly cost-sensitive; requires balancing performance with price.
    • Limited Maintenance Resources:​ Lack of specialized technical personnel in some areas, demanding maintenance-free and easy-to-install equipment.
    • Reliable & Continuous Power Supply:​ Essential for supporting manufacturing/service industries; exhibits very low tolerance for outages.

Core Advantages of Our AIS CT Solutions

Our solution integrates cutting-edge technology with localized design, providing an optimal fit for Southeast Asian users by addressing the above challenges:

  1. High-Reliability Design:
    • Epoxy Cast Resin / Silicone Rubber Insulation:​ Excellent weather and pollution resistance, effectively handles humidity, heat, and salt spray.
    • Double/Multiple Sealing Structures:​ Ensures high protection rating (IP65+), resistant to heavy rain and flooding.
    • High-Quality Silicon Steel Sheet / Toroidal Core:​ Precision magnetizing curve design, significantly reduces errors, providing stable metering and protection signals.
    • Wide Temperature Range Design:​ Guarantees stable operation from -25°C to +70°C.
  2. Outstanding Performance:
