Can a robot be deployed in a substation?
Yes, this is currently the most advanced field of application.
Typical inspection tasks: thermographic checks of terminal points and disconnectors, reading meters and pressure gauges, oil levels, desiccant colour, visual inspection of insulators.
The safety distances to live parts must be observed without exception. They apply to devices as well as to people and must be stored in the navigation map – not only in the operating instructions. In detail in the guide to robot-assisted inspection in energy supply.
