PQView® Data Sources


PQView integrates data from power quality monitors, digital fault recorders, electronic relays, revenue meters, data historians, and SCADA systems. You can use PQView to build a single database one or many different makes and models of data collection systems. Data sources can be configured for automatic import and can be coordinated with e-mail notifications and post-processing analysis.
