Power Application

Electrical connection points (such as cable joints, switch contacts and busbar lap joints) may experience increased contact resistance due to aging, corrosion or loosening, leading to local overheating, which can eventually result in short circuits, fires or even explosions. More than 80% of power accidents are preceded by obvious abnormal temperature rises. Our series of RFID passive temperature sensors enable real-time temperature monitoring while ensuring safety (battery-free and self-powered, avoiding secondary accidents). They detect abnormal temperature rises in advance and issue early warnings before potential hazards escalate into accidents. Real-time monitoring of key temperatures equals mastering the health code of power equipment. This is the core technical support for replacing "breakdown maintenance" with "condition-based maintenance", and an infrastructure-level requirement for building a highly reliable smart grid.
