Iranian Firm Develops Software to Detect Defects in Power Transmission Lines
“We have developed a software that is able to detect more than 80 types of faults in power transmission lines,” said Zahra Attari, a representative of the knowledge-based company.
Noting that identification of defects in power transmission lines by this software is carried out via using artificial intelligence algorithms, she said, “The software will provide operators with a complete report of defects in power plants after troubleshooting and monitors power towers in a short period of time, finding the faults accurately.”
Attari said that at present, regional electricity companies and Iran Power Generation and Transmission Company (TAVANIR) are using this software.
Iranian companies have been trying to produce different industrial equipment in the past few years, specially in power transmission field.
Earlier, a knowledge-based company stationed at the science and technology park of Shahid Beheshti University in Tehran produced RTV coatings with high water repellency and insulation properties.
“Our company’s product enjoys all the necessary performance specifications and has been indigenized based on the geographical climate of Iran,” said Monireh Taqvayee, the managing director of the knowledge-based company.
She added that application of these coatings has resolved the problem of power outage in different areas that face the problem of fine dust and pollution.
Taqvayee noted that the RTV is a type of waterproof insulating coating for insulators and isolators in electricity industry which was produced with the aim of resolving the problem of dust on the surface of electrical network insulators in polluted areas.
RTV silicone high voltage insulator coatings provide superior arcing and flash over protection in various environments.
