KUITUN, China, Oct. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- In recent days, with the continuous decrease in temperature, various types of electricity loads in winter have continued to rise, posing challenges to the power grid equipment and lines, as well as the work of ensuring electricity during peak seasons. The staff of State Grid Kuitun Power Supply Company actively utilize technologies such as infrared temperature measurement, ultrasonic partial discharge, drones, and live working robots to strengthen differentiated operation and maintenance of power equipment, shorten inspection cycles, increase inspection frequency, and fully ensure stable power supply and local economic and social development.

Through the digital control platform of the distribution network, power supply personnel strengthen the monitoring, warning, and inspection of the operation of distribution lines for important customers such as the government, hospitals, schools, ski resorts, etc., timely monitor and judge abnormal situations of faults, eliminate equipment hidden dangers, improve operation and maintenance efficiency, ensure stable operation of the power grid and reliable power supply, and strengthen the safety defense line of the power grid during peak winter.

In substations, intelligent inspection robots can autonomously complete inspections based on equipment inspection tasks set by operators, such as focusing on high-temperature equipment, specific areas, etc. Undertake complex, difficult, risky, and heavy operations in substations, effectively improving equipment inspection efficiency. Robots have sensitive "eyes" that can automatically detect temperature anomalies, electrical blockages, and other issues using infrared radiation. These automated inspection processes are beyond the reach of humans.

On the basis of conducting daily inspections and maintenance of the power grid, State Grid Kuitun Power Supply Company has formulated contingency plans for severe weather and heavy loads, strengthened duty and emergency repair capabilities, conducted regular emergency drills, further enhanced emergency response capabilities, and made every effort to ensure stable and reliable electricity during peak winter periods.
