Cable monitoring solution — Predict with certainty

Existing thermal modelling and monitoring solutions cannot predict, detect and prevent hot spots caused by changes in the surrounding thermal environment for underground cables. Using Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) can provide you with a real time temperature profile of the underground cable. The benefits of this technology combined with real time Dynamic Cable Rating (DCR) systems, based on IEC 60287 and IEC60583 [1] [2] allows you to optimise the power in the cables, to operate within rating limits whilst maximising the network lifetime.
