Nighthawk Systems, Inc. has received an initial order for its CEO700 meter-based whole house disconnect units from Cornhusker Public Power District of Columbus, Nebraska. Cornhusker placed the order after testing units that were originally purchased by its neighboring utility, Nebraska Public Power District. Nebraska Public Power has been purchasing CEO700 units from Nighthawk on a regular basis since March 2005.
The CEO-700 gives electric utilities the ability to remotely connect and disconnect power to residential electric meters on a moment's notice, saving them time and money over the traditional manual method that typically requires multiple truck rolls and field personnel.
