Utility Infrastructure Domain

Overview#

The Utility Infrastructure domain manages the physical asset registry for utility organizations and tracks asset inspection history. Assets represent physical infrastructure across electric, water, and gas utilities, with each asset tracking its type, operational status, condition rating, technical specifications, and connectivity relationships to other assets.

Key Features#

• Comprehensive Asset Registry - Catalog 17 types of utility infrastructure assets across electric (poles, transformers, substations, meters, cable segments, switchgear, capacitor banks, reclosers, fuses), water (pipes, valves, hydrants, pump stations, tanks), and gas (compressors, regulators) utilities.

• Asset Lifecycle Tracking - Track assets through six status stages (active, inactive, maintenance, decommissioned, planned, under construction) for complete lifecycle visibility.

• Condition Rating - Maintain six-level condition ratings (excellent, good, fair, poor, critical, unknown) that are updated automatically when inspection results are recorded.

• Technical Specifications - Store asset-specific technical details including voltage class, phase configuration, capacity ratings, pipe diameter, pressure class, and flow capacity.

• Asset Connectivity - Map relationships between assets including parent, upstream, downstream, feeder, and circuit assignments to understand how infrastructure components connect and depend on each other.

• Inspection Management - Record inspection results with findings, condition assessments, and recommended actions, with automatic updates to the parent asset's condition rating and inspection dates.

• Asset Statistics - View dashboard summaries including total assets, active counts, maintenance needs, and decommissioned equipment for fleet-level infrastructure visibility.

• Search and Discovery - Search assets by tag, name, or address to quickly locate specific infrastructure components in the field or from the office.

Use Cases#

• Asset Management - Maintain a complete inventory of utility infrastructure with current condition assessments and maintenance histories for informed capital planning.

• Outage Analysis - Trace infrastructure connectivity to understand the scope of outages and identify the root cause equipment that needs repair or replacement.

• Inspection Planning - Schedule and track inspections based on asset age, condition rating, and last inspection date to prioritize maintenance activities.

• Capital Planning - Analyze asset condition trends and lifecycle data to inform infrastructure investment decisions and replacement schedules.

Integration#

The Utility Infrastructure domain supports utility operations across the platform:

• Customer Management - Customers link to serving infrastructure for impact analysis
• Work Order Management - Work orders reference specific infrastructure assets
• Telemetry - Real-time monitoring data connects to infrastructure assets
• Service Territory - Assets are organized within geographic service territories
