The middle cable joint is located in the protective shell 2; the cable joint is located in the cavity of the protective shell 2, as shown in FIG. Figure 3As shown, the monitoring module 1 is preferably installed at the bottom surface of the chamber of the protective shell 2. It monitors the accumulated water, temperature and smoke data in the protective shell 2 in real time through the sensor module 11. The processing module 13 in the monitoring module 1 receives the data collected by the sensor module 11 for processing, and transmits the processed data to the monitoring background 3, so that the operator can understand the cable joint status in real time; the analysis module analyzes the data in the monitoring background 3, determines the status of the cable joint, and transmits the cable joint status to the display operation terminal 7 for display, so that the operator can view it conveniently.

[0044] The sensor module 11 in the monitoring module 1 monitors the temperature, accumulated water and smoke in the protective shell 2 in real time, and monitors whether the cable connector in the protective shell 2 is faulty. The processing module 13 processes the information collected by the sensor module 11, and then sends it to the monitoring background 3 through the second communication module 15.
