Abstract

This project aims at long transmission lines run across the world to provide electricity in different states, territories, cities, blocks and houses. The major problem here is to maintain the reliability and the efficiency of these transmission lines which is being achieved by regular inspection, done either manually or by using helicopters which is known as aerial inspection and are considered to be expensive as well as difficult modes of inspection. This professional use of a robot would make the inspection and detection reliable and increases the data accuracy. This is similar to a lineman inspecting the transmission lines manually. It consists of a camera which can take image and can inspect ground clearance such as measuring the distance between line and ground. Also TLIR can detect the voltage drop, current drop, theft in electricity, break in the circuit. The whole inspection can be monitored and controlled by the person visualizing it.
