Poles / Pylons :
•
The
role
of
electricity
has
become
more
significant
in
today’s
society;
electricity
distribution
has
to
be
reliable
and
there
should
be
no
outages
.
Furthermore,
ageing
of
networks
is
an
issue
that
has
to
be
taken
into
account.
Overhead
distribution
Networks depend on “healthy” poles to keep the Network up and running.
•
There are 1000’s of street-light poles that need to be managed properly
to ensure that the lighting networks are reliable and in tact.
•
Regular inspection and maintenance
of light poles, distribution poles, pylons and other infrastructure assets is extremely important. Quarterly to semi-annual inspections are recommended to ensure safety and reliability.
•
Unfortunately criminals more than often
cut / vandalise poles / pylons just to get to the equipment installed on them or to steal cable / conductors.

non-existing
:
Without

(Monitoring)
of

criminals
operate
with
impunity
over
a
very
long
period
of
time.
Criminals
are presented with a very large network of unmonitored Poles and Pylons to slowly and methodically drain the organization.
•
Pole / Pylon Theft / vandalism have more negative financial impacts than only replacement costs
. Repairs and maintenance also increases because of theft and vandalism.
•
Poles / Pylons patrolling:
Poles and Pylons patrols are limited and becomes very costly to ensure it is effectively implemented.
•
Inaccessible
Poles:
A
large
number
of
poles
are
installed
inside
the
dwellings
of
customers.
These
difficult
/
inaccessible
poles
for
the
staff
of
the
Utility
is
making
it
easy
for
the
customer
to
tamper
with
their
installed
connection
and
is
making
it
a
nightmare for the Utility to exercise proper control and monitoring over these poles. Maintenance and repairs are also difficult which result that the useful lifespan of the poles is decreased much sooner.
Common faults causing POLE / PYLON failures:
•
3rd party interferences
vandalism, theft, tampering, vehicles running into poles etc.
•
People / Service Providers digging close to poles damaging the pole hole foundations
•
These days a lot of other services are also installed next or on top of existing services, during installation existing services can be damaged.
•
Environmental damage – lightning strikes, hurricanes, tornado’s, floods
.
•
Poorly installed poles / pylons
•
No preventative maintenance programs to detect early signs of pre-mature failures etc.
•
Natural Ageing of Equipment
•
Poor Quality Products
PROTECTION & MONITORING:
•
Our Monitoring & Management Software system focus on Prevention,
it is our goal to ensure that possible damages / theft etc. to poles / pylons and other infrastructure equipment are early detected before they actually occur.
