Location of installation is selected to guarantee easy service access and avoid any negative environmental factors. Recommended for installation at customers' main station location near power line end point.
Hardware Complex is connected to power line with RF cable through connection filter.
Network connection required to organize monitoring and alerts.
First installation successfully serving for 9 years at a 750kW 3GW electrical station with 1500 wire-miles.
Each installation passes set of certification tests with real-time precise line corruption detection.
Installation in any customers' private location - secure, easy to service and maintain.
Reduce loses by preventing outages. Preventive state measurement with precise collision point detection.
Lines state is controlled on a 24/7 basis: a configurable alerts system to prevent outages.
Single installation location without high-altitude wire-mounted devices. Cost-effective setup and service.
Multiple lines were artificially grounded to simulate real-life collisions and certify system's capabilities.
Several 500kV phases were grounded to check all lines were correctly monitored.
A network connection is required to organize monitoring and alerts.
Precision of corruption distance detection was less than 20 ft on a 300-mile line.
Collisions were simulated at different distances and with different line types to compare the system's precision.
Characteristic changes in the line-wave histogram shows the algorithm's key principles.
The reduction in the number of emergency events on the power line is due to registration of the distances to developing* damages and ability to dispatch teams on a proactive basis to inspect and eliminate the cause. Start, duration, end, level and distance to damage risk* are recorded. In other words, the registration of developing* damages.
Protects equipment from short-circuit currents. The HSC does not allow automatic re-activation of the line to a fatal short circuit by monitoring for the presence of damages on the disconnected lines. Power equipment is not exposed to short-circuit currents more than once.
Reduces "undersupply" of electric power.
Monitors both switched on and disconnected power lines.
Related to power supply interruption.
Monitoring of installed/removed portable grounding at working sites near disconnected power lines, as well as presence of "ground."
(accurate, prompt, and selective determination of distances to places where damage has already occurred**)
Prevents "fan" outages by monitoring a large number of lines at the same time, keeping most redundant power circuits in operation. Increases reliability of power supply to both individual consumers and several regions.
* - Threats of damage (or developing damage or damage that has not yet occurred or has not yet resulted in power line shutdown) include: wood-shrub vegetation, unauthorized works in the security zone of the line, bird nesting areas, wire dancing, increase in the boom of the creep, dangerous places of morning flooring, damage to the thunderstorm, grass-roots fires, reduction of the overall distances of the power line, insulation reduction and linear formation.
* * - Types of damage that may have already occurred on the power line include single-phase, two-phase, three-phase, inter- phase and ground faults, as well as faults with metal and transient resistance, stable and unstable damage, breaks, etc.
Lines operators, mostly large enterprises with significant budgets, are highly motivated to acquire proven and reliable solutions to protect their main capital investments in infrastructure. Predictable and accurate modern power lines monitoring solutions help to significantly improve vendors reliability and resources utilization, reducing the number of unexpected outages and related losses.
