Abstract: A sensing device for a hydrant in a fluid distribution system configured to transport a fluid can include a housing defining a portion of an operating stem of the hydrant; a vein connected to the housing, the vein defining a channel; and a sensor received at least partly and within the channel of the vein and configured to measure at least two properties of the fluid.

Abstract: A nozzle cap for a hydrant can include an inner cap securably engageable with a nozzle of the hydrant, the nozzle configured to connect a fire hose to the hydrant; a communications hub positioned adjacent to the inner cap; and a plug plugging an opening defined in the inner cap and securably engaged with the inner cap, the plug including a material that allows transmission of a wireless signal through the material.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses may be provided for stray voltage detection. The systems, methods and apparatuses may include providing a first antenna at a first location relative to a monitored equipment or structure, where the first antenna may be operative to detect a first electric field strength at the first location, providing a second antenna at a second location relative to the monitored equipment or structure, where the second antenna may be operative to detect a second electric field strength at the second location, and detecting a stray voltage based at least in part upon the detected first electric field strength and the second electric field strength.
