MONOLITHIC POWER CONDITIONING : THE NEW ITS POWER QUALITY PARADIGM

This paper looks at how monolithic power conditioning can improve service and enhance the cost-effectiveness related to Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) site design, installation, and maintenance. It describes how separating power conditioning functions from critical load operations allows for greater flexibility in reconfiguring sites as requirements change. The paper discusses power quality issues, power protection technologies, deployment considerations, and how to ensure system performance. A new monolithic power conditioning paradigm is then described, including its system approach, component integration, redundant and modular transient voltage surge suppression (TVSS) design, and remote monitoring capabilities.
