With Duke Energy’s continued efforts of upgrading obsolete plant systems, in 2019, Kinemetrics, Inc. was awarded a contract to replace the original Kinemetrics’ SMA-3 Seismic Monitoring System in service at HNP since 1987!

Project Achievement

The CONDOR2 Seismic Monitoring Solution at HNP is a multi-phased project, which upgraded the original monitoring system in 2019, as well as provided for Seismic and EMI/RFI qualification.
