TRANSMISSION LINE FAULT INSPECTION ROBOT
project center in Tirunelveli
Power transmission line has been
usually inspected manually by workers riding in gondolas that travel suspended
from the transmission lines or watching with telescope in the ground. In recent
years, it has become increasingly necessary to perform inspection work with the
autonomous inspection robot in power transmission line. This project describes
the development of a mobile robot capable of clearing such obstacles as
counterweights, anchor clamps, and torsion tower. The mobile robot walks on
overhead wires in transmission tower. Its ultimate purpose is to automate to inspect
the defect of power transmission line. The inspection tasks are performed by
the robot carrying detection instruments and rolling/crawling along the
overhead ground wires. The installed camera in the robot will inspect the
transmission cable wear and tear defects and the insulator defects also
inspected by this efficient system. The IR sensors present in the robot system
is used to recognize the pole arrival during every laps. This useful robot
system simplifies the human efforts on high voltage cable testing scenarios.
