 Industrial Talk is onsite at DistribuTech 2025 and talking to Jason Cunningham, VP Business Development at Power Grid Components about "Ensuring Power Quality". Scott Mackenzie hosts an industrial podcast from Distribute Tech in Dallas, Texas, sponsored by Siemens. He interviews Jason Cunningham from Power Grid Components (PGC), who has 19 years of experience in the industry. PGC, formed in 2017, owns eight to nine companies and focuses on providing compatible solutions for utilities and renewables. Cunningham discusses the Syncrotec MDX, a device that mitigates inrush current when switching into a transformer, addressing voltage sags. The device, which has been on the market for about 10 years, can be installed in various switchgear and is compatible with different manufacturers. It stores operational data for up to 500 operations, with the Supertech Plus storing up to 2000 operations. Cunningham can be contacted via LinkedIn for more information. Action Items
  • [ ] Reach out to Siemens for more information on their smart infrastructure and grid software solutions.
  • [ ] Connect with Jason Cunningham on LinkedIn to learn more about the Syncrotec MDX product.
