SynchroSense - Zaphiro Technologies
SynchroSense by Zaphiro Technologies is a Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) that is a cost-effective grid monitoring device providing high-speed and time-synchronized measurements of voltages and currents. Thanks to our patented technology, SynchroSense is 10x faster to install than traditional solutions and non-invasive.
SynchroSense embeds into a single measurement equipment multiple measurement functionality:
- Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU), based on a patented technology allowing extremely accurate synchrophasor measurement under a multitude of operating conditions.
- Digital fault recorder (DFR), to capture fast transient events.
- Power quality (PQ), to monitor the main power quality KPIs.

Meets AEMO’s Very Fast FCAS Specifications
Zaphiro’s SynchroSense Instrument meet AEMO specifications for Frequency Control Ancillary Services (FCAS) and Market Ancillary Service Specification (MASS) as per Section 5.3 of the specification document.
- Sampling rate of Local Frequency Measurements ≤50 ms
- Sampling rate of Generation Amount and Load Amount Measurements ≤50 ms
- Measurement Range of Power Flow Measurements ≤50 ms
- Local Frequency Measurement Range with Frequency Intrinsic Uncertainty of <0.01 Hz and Frequency Resolution of <0.0025 Hz
- Recording Period for Power & System Frequency Measurements ≥5 s before FDT and ≥60 s after it. This setting is adjustable by user as required.
It is also possible to generate automatic reports and customizable templates according to the AEMO reporting requirements, as per Section 5.5 of the MASS document.
