Origo PhaseID System
• No cell phones
• No work delays due to
lack of cellular coverage
• Use on any voltage
• Very portable (only 3 lbs)
• Lowest cost solution
available
Principal of Operation
• A GPS timing signal is used to simultaneously
measure phase at a reference location and at a
field location.
• The phase attribute at the reference location is
known.
• By comparing the reference and field phase
measurements, the field phase attribute can be
determined.

Phase Measurement Comparisons
• The reference phase base station can be connected
to any convenient wall socket of any phase.
• Each GPS second, the wall socket phase is
measured and stored in a PC file.
• When touched to any energized line, the field probe
measures the unknown phase at the next GPS
second and encodes it into a 9-digit sequence.
• Base and field measurements can be compared at
any convenient time and manner by simply entering
the 9-digit sequence into the PC.

Manual Version
• Non-Real-Time phase
attribute determination.
• Write down the phase
sequences and enter them
into the base station later.
• Call your dispatcher, or any
other utility personnel, and
give them the 9-digit
sequence. They will enter it
into their PC and tell you the
phase attribute.
Datalogger Version
• Real-Time phase attribute
determination if Internet
access available.
• Automatically records the
phase sequence in a
measurement file.
• Provides GPS location.
• Accepts user notes.
• Real-Time Satellite
communication link available
soon.

Tagging Reference Phase
• Tagging reference phase is one of the most important
concepts of phase identification.
• Tagging reference phase simply refers to what phase
attribute you wish to call each 3-phase conductor.
• There is no universal “Phase A”. Phases A, B, and C
are simply the phase attributes the utility wishes to
tag or assign to each of the 3-phase conductors.
• Once assigned, all conductors of the same phase are
tagged according to this chosen tagging reference
phase.

Batch Convert
• All measurement sequences can be converted to
phase attribute with a single click.
• First, copy the base station daily reference file into
the field PC data directory.
• Next, click on the third icon to the right of the
measurement sequence window (red-to-green icon).
• This action converts all measurement sequences to
phase attributes and changes all red dots to green
dots.
