[0002] Transmission lines are an important part of the power system, and the operation of transmission lines has a significant impact on the safe and stable operation of the power system. Therefore, when designing transmission lines, it is necessary to determine the wire diameter of the already built overhead cables. However, due to the incomplete information of many old substations, it is difficult for operators to identify the wire diameter data of the lines during inspections; In the existing common technologies, the diameter of the overhead cable is often measured by manual or image modeling methods, using the drone's built-in camera or manually using a high-zoom camera to shoot and film. This method has great limitations. The images taken by the drone are easily interfered by the signal generated by the cable, which increases the error and the data accuracy cannot be guaranteed. The manual shooting method is easily affected by factors such as the shooting angle and shooting distance, and the data obtained is not accurate enough. The existing mechanical measurement method, such as the electronic measuring ruler with patent publication number CN202267446U, cannot guarantee the safety of operation in an overhead environment and has low adaptability. These methods all have problems such as large electromagnetic interference and high measurement errors, making it difficult to effectively ensure the accuracy of data and the safety of operations. Therefore, a remote measuring ruler for overhead cables is designed, which uses remote control, remote communication, automatic measurement, insulation protection and other technologies to solve the current problem of inaccurate overhead cable data measurement.
