Speaking at the time of acquisition, Jim McRae, CEO of PSI said This is a fantastic fit for us. Kelvateks products are already in use with the electricity companies supporting the fault location process, and we can now add another element to the companys offering. We have focussed on automating the fault locating process, as has Kelvatek with the Rezap and DeltaV products. Were now looking forward to combining the various technologies to provide customers with an ease of fault location that they have never experienced before.
