Drone-installed DLR Sensors

Ampacimon, a world leader in Dynamic Line Rating (DLR) technology has installed a DLR sensor on a live 220 kV power line. DLR allows power utilities to increase the power capacity of power lines by up to 40% when weather effects like wind, ambient temperature and loss of solar heat cool the line. Ampacimon has produced DLR sensors since 2010 and has many customers globally, however the installation of sensors has been time consuming due to long outage lead time or requiring specialized live-line skills.
