Hidden Systems: Water, Electricity, the Internet, and the Secrets Behind the Systems We Use Every Day by Dan Nott. RH Graphic, 2023. 9780593125366. 266pp.

I frequently listen to the 99% Invisible podcast, but that's generally the extent of the information I get on infrastructure.

Nott's amazing graphic novel pulled me in in a way few nonfiction comics have; I don't think I've ever read this complete an explanation of the water cycle including the problems humans create, solve, and need to address. The chapters on the internet had me noting buildings in Seattle that I walk past without seeing, anonymous places full of servers and other tech that I don't really understand (but should). Nott explores history to show how we've arrived at where we are now, shows us the way things work (there's a quote on the cover from David Macaulay), and makes us aware of current and potential crises. In other hands this would be overwhelming, but Nott's work invites further exploration of the topics he covers.

There's a lot to love in this nonfiction graphic novel, but my favorite parts are the pages from Nott's sketchbooks at the end; looking at them after reading the book gave me a glimpse of how his mind works. He also includes notes and a selected bibliography.

Ring Main Unit Market 2024-2033: Enhancing Grid Stability and Reliability

Ring Main Units (RMUs) are essential components in modern electrical distribution systems, facilitating efficient power distribution and ensuring reliable electricity supply.

These compact and versatile units are used to switch, control, and protect electrical networks, particularly in urban and industrial settings where space is limited. RMUs play a crucial role in enhancing grid reliability by isolating faults and minimizing outage durations. Their modular design allows for easy expansion and upgrades, accommodating evolving energy demands and integrating renewable energy sources seamlessly into the grid. As utilities worldwide transition towards smarter, more resilient grids, RMUs are increasingly equipped with advanced monitoring and communication capabilities, enabling real-time data analysis and remote operation. This technological evolution not only improves operational efficiency but also supports sustainable energy practices by optimizing energy flow and reducing environmental impact. With ongoing innovations in power distribution technology, RMUs are set to continue powering connectivity and resilience in electrical grids worldwide.

"🔌 Wide Area Protection in Power Systems: Enhancing Grid Reliability and Stability ⚡️

Wide area protection harnesses advanced monitoring, communication, and control technologies to fortify electrical grids over large geographical areas. Here are some key aspects:

1️⃣ Time-Synchronized Measurement: Phasor measurement units (PMUs) provide real-time data on voltage, current, and frequency, enabling precise system monitoring.

2️⃣ Wide Area Monitoring Systems (#WAMS): Comprehensive analysis of PMU data allows operators to assess system behavior and identify anomalies across the entire grid.

3️⃣ Wide Area Control Systems: These systems utilize PMU data to make automatic adjustments that maintain stability during contingencies or disturbances.

4️⃣ Oscillation Detection and Damping: #WideAreaProtection helps detect and mitigate low-frequency oscillations that can impact power system stability.

5️⃣ Fault Location and Isolation: Synchronized phasor measurements expedite fault identification, isolation, and restoration processes.

6️⃣ Communication Infrastructure: Robust and secure communication networks transmit real-time PMU data from various locations to control centers for analysis.

By implementing wide area protection, power system operators can enhance reliability, minimize disruptions, and ensure a reliable power supply.

Do you have an exit?

My wife is fond of saying: “It’s a poor rat that only has one hole.” How true. Consider: America is in a state of decline. The government is in massive disarray and is inept. Corruption is endemic throughout every strata of society. Our financial system is on the brink of collapse. Inequality is so rampant that it threatens to unravel the social cohesion of the nation. Our electrical grid is under constant the foreign probing and is thought to be compromised. And war looms whether with China, Russia, North Korea or Iran in the future. This comprises just a small listing of our ruinous exposure to the coming converging calamities.

Given this national proximity to calamity, chaos and discord, what preparations are you making to remain and emerge unscathed? What will you do when the status quo of your existence is completely upended and you are thrown on your  own resources? Resources that may be swallowed up by financial collapse, or unavailable because the grid is down, or made inaccessible by government diktat and decree. What then?

Obviously, if you wait till an emergency is upon you, choices will be forced, constrained and more costly. Or perhaps out of reach...

However, there is a way to avoid this despairing scenario: Create a safe haven now. A backdoor out of the national crisis to come. Begin the process of gaining permanent residency in the peaceful Republic of Panama. Have your own domicile there. And/or perhaps a business. Limit your exposure to the U.S. banking system and diversify your financial holdings, placing them in the Panamanian banking system. A system well established, strong, respected and international in scope

Here’s your exit. Your refuge in the crisis to come. A safe and welcoming place where paradise is more than a notion. Interested? Contact me and let’s begin the process of making you Panama Bound. Richard@panamabound.net
