To maintain the reliability, availability, and sustainability of electricity supply, electricity
companies regularly perform visual inspections on their transmission and distribution …

To secure uninterrupted distribution of electricity, effective monitoring and maintenance of
power lines are needed. This literature review article aims to give a wide overview of the …

As the failure of power line insulators leads to the failure of power transmission systems, an
insulator inspection system based on an aerial platform is widely used. Insulator defect …

The insulator is an important catenary component that maintains the insulation between the
catenary and earth. Due to the long-term impact of railway vehicles and the environment …

In recent decades, a substantial increase in electricity demand has put pressure on
powerline systems to ensure an uninterrupted power supply. In order to prevent power …

One of the key tasks of the overhead line power equipment inspection based on aerial
images acquired by unmanned aerial vehicles is to determine whether the insulators are …

The detection of insulators with cluttered backgrounds in aerial images is a challenging task
for an automatic transmission line inspection system. In this paper, we propose an effective …

The traditional methods of overhead power transmission line inspections are mostly
unsuited as the height of transmission towers is too high and wide. Detection and inspection …

To realize intelligent fault detection of high voltage line, a deep convolution neural network
method based on Faster R-CNN method is proposed to locate the broken insulators and bird …

As a promising and noncontact detection technique, machine vision has been widely used
in fault diagnosis of substation equipment. The rapid and accurate detection of substation …
