As you open this issue of the OMICRON Magazine, you may have already noticed our cover story: “OMICRON Energizing Women” is an initiative to promote female electrical engineers in the Middle East and Africa. After its fourth edition, it’s clear – what began as a great idea became a huge success. Read the full origin story in the interview with Nadia and Ahmed starting on page 6. When an exciting genesis story began, we were partners in the “INZELL” project. It’s a research project about grid support and system services, supported by an industrial cell with islanding capabilities and renewable energy. The details have been summarized on page 26. Learn about the importance of an insulating handle and a safety plug for high-voltage tests. Starting on page 18, we’ve taken a closer look at the new functionality of our ground spikes as part of the CPC 100 and COMPANO 100 grounding test sets. Partial discharges (PD) are a common indicator of insulation degradation in electrical equipment, including generators and motors. You can read about the MONGEMO system’s role in the interview with our Sales Partner from Malaysia, Mohamed Helmy Halim, starting on page 12. Finally, we have summarized all the news about the German IT security law for you. Read about all three methods for detecting targeted attacks in the second part of our article, starting on page 22. You can also learn more about the new PTM 5.00 update, which comes with new features for security, cyber security, and an SFRA measurement validation service. If you have any feedback about this issue, please let me know – I look forward to hearing from you. Enjoy reading! Lia Thum OMICRON Magazine Project Lead 2
