Abstract

This project aimed to create a new communication system with high permeability, expandability, reliability and which scope was appropriate to the environment of the distribution networks, enabling the implementation of monitoration, measurement and control of the devices on electricity distribution networks. The project was completed with field installation of a wireless mesh network fully functional, including end devices and gateways compatibles with the DNP 3.0 and ABNT protocols, covering the power distribution network in the city of Niterói and the street light monitoring and control in the city of Curitiba.
