Power Line Carrier

Although fiber optic and microwave-based digital communication systems have augmented or replaced many traditional PLC-based communication systems, PLC (Power-line Carrier) continues to be one of the most cost-effective solutions to cover the operational needs of a wide-area power system.

PLC systems typically represent a large long-term investment on the part of many utility companies, and it is seldom possible to replace entire PLC systems all at once.  In other cases, PLC channels are still useful as backup channels or for simple low-cost installations that do not require the installation of new digital lines.

For this reason, CC&E Engineers continue to specialize in the design and implementation of PLC-based communication systems.
