Due to grid smartification, transformer station technology is subject to more frequent modifications. However, the lack of clear documentation on transformer substation installations complicates these maintenance interventions. The TS360 solution put into operation by PREdistribuce aims to solve this issue by setting up a uniform procedure for photo documentation of substations and making this information available to all its staff members through the existing asset management application.
The TS360 solution facilitates PREdistribuce’s staff in gathering information on substation access, cable layout and placement of technology. The capturing of 360° images allows for the virtual inspection of the substation, facilitating the visualisation of existing technology and the decision of placement for future installations. Future upgrades will include documentation access through mobile applications and automatic image processing.
