Filed:
Apr 29, 2010
Appl. No.:
13/266618
Inventors:
Paul Alan Alex - Fairfield CT, US
Duncan Breese - New Milford CT, US

Abstract:
A device for monitoring and measuring the electrical and mechanical parameters of a power line conductor. Sensors of the device measure conductor temperature, the angle of inclination of the overhead conductor, current flowing in the conductor, and voltage to ground. The device has a low-power mode in which parameters of the power line conductor are not measured. Upon detecting a change in an electrical or mechanical value of the power line conductor, the device measures parameters of the power line conductor for a predetermined length of time before returning to the low power mode.
