Power Transmission & Distribution Lines
Over the years, with the increasing demand for power, an extensive network of power transmission lines and towers has been developed across the globe
Though with expansion the transmission grids have become complex as these grids play a vital role in evacuating the power generated at various power generating plants and distributing it further, it is imperative that transmission infrastructures perform robustly throughout their operational life cycle. This can only be attained if all the components of these grids are monitored regularly.
In order to ensure un-interrupted power supply by preventing inadvertent power failures and thereby reducing outage regular inspections of this network is essential.
Brief
The general practice prevalent in the power utilities is to perform need based manual inspection. Apart from structurally built steel lattice towers, transmission grid consists of several hundred kilometers of overhead power lines which generally pass through topographically complex locations. In the absence of well planned periodical maintenance routines and predictive maintenance techniques, the network becomes error prone. This not only makes the prevalent manual inspections tedious, time consuming and erroneous but also results in frequent power failures.
