This Ande release was published using machine translation.

In order to evaluate the results of the first tests of the Experimental Pilot Plan for the acquisition and transmission of data from ANDE's distribution maneuvering equipment to the Japanese KITSUNE satellite, a test was carried out today, Tuesday, July 5, meeting between the Director of the Telematics Directorate, Eng. Luis Poisson, and PhD Adolfo Jara, from the Space Agency of Paraguay.

In the aforementioned meeting, where the head of the Communication Systems Division, Eng. Fernando González and Diego Colmán, a member of the technical team, were also present; The necessary works and pending developments were analyzed for the satisfactory implementation of this Pilot Plan, which consists of the installation of a terrestrial terminal station/sensor, located in the Chaco, which will serve to receive information on the voltage levels of ANDE's Medium Voltage lines, reception of temperature levels in the recloser area and its exact position, which will serve for greater agility and fault detection, in cases of out of service.

Likewise, future experimental projects, developments and technological innovations that could contribute to continue improving the management and operation of ANDE's electricity distribution system were mentioned.

These works are carried out within the framework of the Technical Cooperation Agreement and Specific Agreement between ANDE and the Space Agency of Paraguay.
