How IoT Sensors Detect Power Cable Partial Discharge
Episode 137 of Internet of Things with Fexingo dives into how IoT sensors are detecting partial discharge in underground power cables, preventing blackouts and fires. Lucas and Luna explore the technology behind continuous partial discharge monitoring, the data that predicts insulation failure months in advance, and a real-world case from a Texas utility that used acoustic sensors to avoid a city-wide outage. They also discuss the economics of cable replacement vs. sensing, and how this IoT application is scaling as utilities digitize their grids. A must-listen for anyone in energy…
