An RFID and sensor web-enabled smart electric power equipment inspection system

Abstract

People's daily lives depend on the power supply almost uninterruptedly in contemporary society, and the safe operation of power system is an important basis to ensure the safety and stability of industrial production and people's lives. Thus, inspection is necessary to ensure the safe operation of power facilities. Nowadays, there are three main kinds of inspection methods: traditional manual inspection, two-dimensional code inspection and inspection robot. However, each of the existing inspection method has its own disadvantages such as low efficiency, contact inspections and so on. Therefore, it makes sense to design a system to improve the efficiency and intelligence level, what is this paper does. The system in this paper has two main advantages RFID and multi-sensors, and the first realized a contactless and uniquely identified inspection, the second achieve all-day and real-time environmental monitoring. Above all, the system can realize a contactless, more comprehensive and effective inspection.
