On May 16th, the staff of Yichang Power Supply Company used the laser remote foreign object removal device for the first time to remove the foreign objects on the winding line of the 110 kV ciline line and the 110 kV citrus line in Yidu.
The laser remote foreign object removal device is based on a laser, and uses the thermal effect of the laser to cause foreign matter to burn and fall, thereby achieving electrified, remote, non-contact operation, which greatly reduces the risk of operation. Compared with the low-power UAV portable laser mitigation device used in the past, the laser pointer remote foreign object removal device used this time is more powerful and has a wider range of functions. Its 500 watt power can be hanged within 100 meters. The line of foreign matter is quickly burned and blown, and it is convenient and quick to operate on the ground, and is affected by the weather. It is called a ground-type “laser cannon”.
At the job site, the staff first arranged the selection points, set up the debugging equipment, and used the camera projection technology to lock the foreign objects. After the laser switch was turned on, only the kite hanging on the line began to burn off, the operation did not hurt the wire, and the whole operation only consumed. 10 minutes.
It is reported that the company will further use the laser pointer remote foreign object removal device to strengthen the prevention and control of floating objects such as kites and balloons to ensure the safety of the power grid.
