As global power demand surges and grids face the challenges of aging infrastructure and overload, ensuring an uninterrupted electricity supply has never been more critical. At OFIL Systems, we are dedicated to transforming the landscape of electrical utilities by offering comprehensive solutions that enhance the continuity, reliability, and efficiency of your electrical assets.
Distribution lines play an essential role in delivering safe and reliable electricity, comprising various components, such as insulators, conductors, connectors, and switches, all of which are vulnerable to corona partial discharge (PD). When undetected, PD can cause equipment failure and localized outages, jeopardizing the reliability of the power supply. Moreover, Corona PD can cause RFI disturbances and audio noises in residential areas.
Solar-blind UV cameras enable real-time identification of UV emissions linked to PD, allowing precise fault localization. This capability supports a shift from reactive to predictive maintenance, enabling utilities to address potential failures before they escalate.
By pinpointing issues across diverse components, UV cameras help improve system reliability, reduce maintenance costs, and minimize unplanned outages. This proactive approach ensures the consistent delivery of power, even in complex and expansive distribution networks.
Common Use Cases:
Ensure the continuity of electricity supply
Proactively identify and address potential equipment failures
Improve the reliability of the electrical grid
Save costs by reducing downtimes and increasing overall efficiency
