Title
Sensor Technologies for a Smart Transmission System
Description
Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) researchers have an ongoing effort to research and develop sensor technologies and the associated infrastructure needed to aid utilities in addressing an aging transmission fleet, as well as to increase the capacity of existing assets, and help develop the next generation of equipment and technologies. Research and development efforts are underway in the following areas: Application of Sensor Information; Sensor Developments; Communication and Sensor Data Collection; Security; Power Harvesting and Algorithms and Data Visualization. In this white paper a review of these areas, from sensor applications to visu­alization, is described for transmission lines and substa­tions.
