A cable is simply made of a conductor wrapped in one or more layers of insulation material.
Cable condition monitoring system.
With conventional systems a sensor is needed for each point of interest.
The system consists of the functionalities of online dielectric loss dl monitoring outer sheath and earthing system condition monitoring and a rapid fault localization system all based on monitoring of cable sheath currents.
For applications spanning large areas and longer distances these solutions become over complicated bulky unreliable and costly to maintain.
An ap sensing distributed acoustic sensing das system is monitoring a 6 km high voltage power cable in germany.
This helps optimize transmission and distribution networks and reduces costly and unnecessary operational costs and asset downtime.
Jubatus offers a range of condition monitoring systems from our partners in germany and italy.
This paper presents the research and development of an integrated high voltage hv power cable condition monitoring and fault localization system.
Distributed temperature sensing has applications in both monitoring by alerting users to any critical faults in networks but also sensing of abnormal conditions ranging from fire detection to cable security.
A key feature of das is the ability to immediately detect and locate cable faults.
