Switchgear is critical for the distribution of power within the electric grid, as well as to industrial facilities. In order to provide stable power, it is crucial to keep switchgear operating continuously. Long term opération of switchgear components in high temperature and/or high humidity conditions can resuit in dégradation of insulation as well as other components, increasing the chance of arc flash events, explosion, and fire. Switchgear failure can cause power outages, enormous equipment damage, as well as injury to personnel. Therefore, knowing the switchgear's status by continuous monitoring of bus bar temperature, ambient temperature, humidity, and other conditions such as partial discharge, will help equipment operators identify and perform preventive maintenance, reducing the risk of equipment damage and personnel injury. The PoF Smart Monitoring System represents a new génération of continuous monitoring systems for switchgear and other critical electrical assets, enabled by the adoption of power over fiber (PoF) technology. A laser data module (LDM) delivers laser light through a non-conductive fiber patch cord (FPC), where the transmitted laser light is converted to electricity within a sensor module to power internai sensors. Key Features: Power over Fiber (PoF) technology Monitor temperature and humidity on bus bar Multi-function single sensor module No sensor module range limitation or alignment constraints No low voltage wiring in high voltage compartment Excellent noise immunity capability Multiple sensor module system solutions Applications: Switchgear and Electrical Equipment Hazardous Environments Remote Sensing Wind turbine monitoring system
