Thousands of attendees and exhibitors are poised to take part in the biggest event of the electric utility industry, the 2008 IEEE PES Transmission and Distribution Conference and Exposition hosted by ComEd in Chicago. The IEEE Blog is a unique tour of the 2008 PES Expo, updated regularly by Gene Wolf, chairman of the TDW and IEEE Fellow.

Technology is so much fun

In my latest wanderings, I stopped at the Southern States exhibit. They have some pretty interesting technology on display. Raj Anand calls it enabling technology. Things like the CMD (current measuring device) – watch it measure current, but not have to be part of the circuit. The Cap Switcher is pretty interesting, but the RL Switcher really got my attention. Ask them about it. Tell Joe that Gene sent me. He can explain anything – heck I understand it when he explains. I wish I had had an instructor like him in my under graduate work.
