Line inspections with drones
We create brilliant and high-resolution aerial photographs of your line. The drone can be used to carry out system inspections from the air even when the lines are switched on. This increases the availability of the lines and saves costs. The drones also enable high-resolution photos to be taken from optimum viewing angles - even from hard-to-access locations. Photos help assess the damage and define repair measures.
The power masts and cables are the capital of reliable power supply. Axpo's 2,200 kilometre-long distribution and medium-voltage grid has around 7,500 power masts. Condition is inspected regularly and recorded from the ground and from the air by overhead line fitters. Our specially trained personnel fly along the lines according to fixed specifications and have the necessary routine for this work. Of course, the aircraft can also be used for many other tasks.
