gridpulse®
Base

The high precision self powered line monitoring sensor that collects data directly from the line. Always.

The gridpulse® BASE forms the heart of the system. It consists of a number of sensors to measure different characteristics of the Transmission Line (e.g. temperature, sag) in realtime. It harvests the energy necessary for operation directly from the Transmission Line and communicates via different communication modes (e.g. GSM, LoRa, satellite).

Measurement of

  • Conductor temperature
  • Conductor inclination
  • Current, Voltage
