Project Example: Dynamic Line Rating

Weather-dependent operation of overhead power lines refers to the influence of environmental conditions, such as temperature, wind, and precipitation, on the performance and safety of power transmission systems. High winds can cause line oscillations or even damage the infrastructure, while temperature fluctuations affect the line's thermal capacity. In colder climates, ice accumulation can increase the weight on power lines, potentially leading to line sag or breakage. Operators often adjust power flow and maintenance schedules based on weather forecasts to ensure safe and reliable transmission of electricity.

The setup includes:

  • Datalogger blueberry XXXD2 or NANOXXX
    Integrated data logger with connection options for passive Pt100 sensors and thermopile pyranometers.
  • Analog sensors
    Anemometers and wind vanes with analog outputs for measuring wind speed and direction. 
    and direction. XXXX
  • Built-in protection components
    Surge arresters and fuses are integrated in the data logger to increase system reliability.
  • Power supply
    Integrated charge controller for solar and battery operation to ensure autonomous and continuous measurement.

This system is particularly user-friendly and cost-effective as it does not require additional converters or complex installations.
