The invention provides a 
monitoring system and a method for precisely measuring high-
voltage line 
windage. The 
system is composed of a 
windage monitoring device, a meteorological monitoring device, a monitoring 
base station and a monitoring centre. Functions of acquisition and transmission of 
windage and meteorological data, failure pre-warning, real-
time control and 
data processing and displaying are realized. The windage monitoring device comprises a sensor module, a 
signal modulating module, a 
signal control and 
wireless transceiving module, a GPS (
Global Position System) module, an MCU (Micro 
Control Unit) and a vibration power generating module. The device is unnecessary to be additionally provided with a power supply. The power of the device is completely supplied by the miniature vibration power generating module. A 
field monitoring device transmits data to the monitoring 
base station through a short-distance 
wireless communication module. Then, the data is sent to the monitoring centre through a GPRS (
General Packet Radio Service) network of the 
base station. The monitoring centre also can reversely transmit instruction so that the operation state of the device is adjusted. Simultaneously, the windage monitoring device is designed in a low-power-consumption mode integrating 
dormancy, standby and timed transmission. A mechanism for automatically rousing by exceeding a preset threshold is operated. The 
system and the method disclosed by the invention are applicable to online-monitoring a high-
voltage line.
