Abstract
Maintenance monitoring may be provided. First, a plurality of status data respectively corresponding to a plurality of components on a power line may be collected. Then the collected plurality of status data may be analyzed to determine when a one of the collected plurality of status data is outside of a normal operation range for a one of the plurality of components corresponding to the one of the collected plurality of status data. Next, results of the collected data analysis may be displayed. The results may indicate that the one of the collected plurality of status data is outside of the normal operation range for the one of the plurality of components corresponding to the one of the collected plurality of status data.
Claims20
A method of providing maintenance monitoring, the method comprising:
- collecting, by a power line monitor, a plurality of status data respectively corresponding to a plurality of components on a power line;
- analyzing the collected plurality of status data to determine when a one of the collected plurality of status data is outside of a normal operation range for a one of the plurality of components corresponding to the one of the collected plurality of status data;
- and
- displaying results of the collected data analysis, the results indicating that the one of the collected plurality of status data is outside of the normal operation range for the one of the plurality of components corresponding to the one of the collected plurality of status data.
A computer-readable medium that stores a set of instructions which when executed perform a method for providing maintenance monitoring, the method executed by the set of instructions comprising:
- receiving, by a computer, a plurality of status data respectively corresponding to a plurality of components on a power line;
- analyzing the collected plurality of status data to determine when a one of the collected plurality of status data is outside of a normal operation range for a one of the plurality of components corresponding to the one of the collected plurality of status data;
- and
- displaying results of the collected data analysis, the results indicating that the one of the collected plurality of status data is outside of the normal operation range for the one of the plurality of components corresponding to the one of the collected plurality of status data.
A system for providing maintenance monitoring, the system comprising:
- a power line monitor configured to collect a plurality of status data respectively corresponding to a plurality of components on a power line, the a plurality of components comprising at least two of the following:
- a structure, a conductor, a conductor splice, a conductor dead-end, an insulator string, a support connecting the insulator string to the structure, and a ground of the structure;
- and
- a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system configured to;
- receive the plurality of status data from the power line monitor,
- analyze the collected plurality of status data to determine when a one of the collected plurality of status data is outside of a normal operation range for a one of the plurality of components corresponding to the one of the collected plurality of status data, and
- display results of the collected data analysis, the results indicating that the one of the collected plurality of status data is outside of the normal operation range for the one of the plurality of components corresponding to the one of the collected plurality of status data.
