Power Cable Condition Monitoring

Holistic cable condition monitoring provides the technological advantage needed to ensure the safe & reliable transmission & distribution of electricity.

AP Sensing’s distributed fiber optic sensing technology continuously monitors your
entire power cable infrastructure and enables network performance optimization. Using a standard fiber optic cable as a continuous sensor, our Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) and Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) technologies monitor kilometers of subsea and underground power cables, as well as overhead lines.

This enables real time identification of thermal anomalies, cable faults, and external threats as well as safe grid operation at the highest possible ampacity level.

Our technology is used for:
cable fault detection and location
Third Party Interference (TPI) monitoring
condition assessments
Real Time Thermal Rating (RTTR)
Depth of Burial (DoB) monitoring
maximum permissible load

AP Sensing’s comprehensive power cable monitoring solution is fully integrable with existing operating control systems, and our SmartVision software makes it easy to view and analyze all data and monitor your circuits. All of these technologies can be stand-alone or combined, even with additional sensor data which improves decision making and reduces outage times and operational costs.
