Fiber Optic Sensor for High Voltage Measurement
Fiber-optic transducers are ideally adapted to high-voltage environments as they are highly immune to electro-magnetic interference and there is no galvanic connection between the sensor head on high-voltage and substation electronics. Fiber optic sensors have several unique advantages that make them suitable candidates for this demanding application. For over 20 years, laboratories, R&D centers, and industries have trusted Montena for measuring and monitoring ultra-fast electromagnetic pulses.

Underground cable fiber optic temperature sensor
High-resolution temperature sensing with Raman-OFDR using optical communication fiber cables shows great potential as it allows the surveillance of several kilometers of underground transport facilities without the need for installing sensing equipment in the tunnels. Underground cable monitoring is crucial for maintaining reliability and preventing failures caused by environmental and mechanical threats. By detecting issues early, it enables proactive maintenance, reducing the risk of service disruptions and costly repairs. Current temperature measurement methods, including fiber-optic-based systems (DTS and LTS), involve high costs that limit their feasibility in medium-voltage networks, where more economically accessible alternatives are required. Contact us today to learn more about our praetorian sensing for underground power cable capabilities and above-ground power cable monitoring.
