Abstract: A method of remote control of a transmission capacity of an aerial power line in real time including arranging on a cable of the power line devices monitoring parameters that characterize a condition of the cable including a cable temperature Tki in a cross-section along a length of the cable, and a value of a current I in the cable in a time point t, determined in accordance with data of a GPS system received by the devices arranged on the cable, transmitting the data about the condition of the cable by the monitoring devices via channels GSM/GPRS to a receiving device of a concentrator arranged in a point of control of a mode of operation of the aerial line, from N values of Tki selecting a maximum value Tkmax, and comparing the selected value with the value Tklim which is a maximum permissible cable temperature; and making a conclusion to reduce, to increase or to maintain a load current in the cable depending on a rating between Tkmax and Tkilm.

Abstract: The invention refers to remote monitoring of power objects and is designed for collecting data on OHTL conductor status and passing such to data collection point (dispatch point for example). The invention's objective is to exclude necessity to produce and maintain specialized technological applications for measuring conductor's attitude parameters and/or communication with measurements collection point, and thus improve reliability of the device operation as an autonomous element of system of monitoring of OHTL conductor status. The device contains a housing, equipped with a mean for attachment to OHTL conductor, and located therein power supply and measuring-transmitting module. Invention options provide for introduction into the measuring-transmitting module of interface with utility cellular telephony channel and/or Global Positioning System signals receiver identifying its three-dimensional coordinates.
