Distribution equipment monitoring system based on the internet of things

摘要

The Internet of Things technology has large potential in obtaining, analyzing, processing, controlling and feeding back the information of physical properties(location, status, behavior, characteristics, etc.), which will produce a tremendous positive role in promoting the development of smart grid. This paper describes how the distribution equipment monitoring can be represented as an event-based system in combination with the Internet of Things technology. The proposed monitoring system integrates wireless ad hoc network communications, distribution network monitoring system, and environmental monitoring system, and allows saving costs related with wear minimization and prolonging the actuator life, but keeping promising performance results.
