eXPert DMS

The Essentials for Efficient Remote Control of Power Distribution Networks.

eXPert DMS (Distribution Management System) is SDI’s solution for the remote control of electrical distribution networks.

Designed to offer essential functionality through an intuitive and accessible interface, eXPert DMS combines real-time monitoring, advanced alarm management and fault detection to ensure proactive control, improve service quality and reduce downtime.
Thanks to its modular and scalable architecture, eXPert DMS adapts flexibly to the different needs of utilities, supporting operational developments, new features and integration with external systems. The HMIoE operator interface, winner of the iF DESIGN AWARD, is designed to facilitate quick and informed decisions in complex industrial environments.

The platform offers an integrated topological and geographical view via GIS, a Network Failure Search function to locate and diagnose faults in real time, and a Study Station to simulate scenarios and generate reports compliant with ARERA regulations.

eXPert DMS guarantees IT security through the adoption of protocols and standards such as IEC 62351, IEC 60870-5-104 and ISO/IEC 27001, safeguarding data integrity and protecting critical infrastructure.

The solution is complemented by a set of complementary services, from hardware supply to field installation, maintenance and ongoing technical support.
A highly reliable and secure system, suitable for different architectures and installation methods.

Insight
