DEVICE TO CONTROL OVERHEAD TRANSMISSION LINE AND TO DISTRIBUTE ELECTRIC ENERGY WITH SELECTIVE SWITCHING OF COMMUNICATION CIRCUIT OF DIRECTIONAL ANTENNAS WITH LOW LOSSES Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC G01R31/08 

FIELD: measurement equipment.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to measurement equipment, in particular, to facilities for control of overhead power transmission lines. The device comprises a body, through which the power transmission line passes, and a side part, which closes both ends of the body. At the same time the body comprises a GPS module interacting with a satellite with the help of antennas distanced in space and formed on the side part, and also a module of sensors for condition of the overhead line or condition of the environment. Also the device comprises the first and second wireless modules and an antenna switchboard, made as capable to implement communication with another control device, a control unit, providing for switching of the antenna switchboard for connection to antennas of the first and second wireless modules. The control unit is made as capable of transmission with the help of directional antennas of control information, including information on condition of the line and information of the GPS system. The device also comprises an infrared or a digital chamber, a mobile communication module, a memory, a power supply unit, made in the form of an accumulator or a supercapacitor. Radio modules may be modules based on ZigBee, WiFi, Bluetooth technologies.

EFFECT: increased reliability of information transmission, reduced power supply losses.
