State Grid Shizuishan Power Supply Company: "Intelligent Patrol + Manual" Mode Effectively Addresses Wind and Weather-Related Hazards

SHIZUISHAN, China, Feb. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Recently, the Meteorological Observatory of Shizuishan City in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region issued a blue wind warning signal, indicating that impending adverse weather conditions may significantly impact urban operations, transportation, and power facilities. In response to this challenge and to ensure the safety of power supply, State Grid Shizuishan Power Supply Company acted swiftly by activating its emergency plan. The company implemented an inspection approach that combines "intelligent patrols with manual inspections" to thoroughly investigate and efficiently address various safety hazards.

Windy weather often brings about safety risks such as loose equipment, foreign objects entangled in power lines, and damage to external insulation on equipment—each posing a serious threat to the safe and stable operation of power grid infrastructure. Recognizing these dangers, State Grid Shizuishan Power Supply Company prioritized immediate countermeasures. Leveraging advanced intelligent technology, it conducted comprehensive inspections of substations within its jurisdiction using an intelligent patrol system. This system employs state-of-the-art equipment—including high-definition cameras and infrared thermometers—for remote monitoring and real-time data acquisition, enabling quick and accurate detection of any abnormalities in equipment performance.

With the support of the intelligent patrol system, operation and maintenance personnel swiftly identified six potential hazards and promptly verified and addressed them on-site. Targeted rectification plans were developed based on the severity and urgency of each hazard, clearly designating responsible individuals and establishing deadlines for rectification to ensure comprehensive implementation of corrective measures. Concurrently, the company has established a feedback mechanism for addressing hidden dangers, utilizing the intelligent patrol system to review the status of rectifications and ensure that all risks are completely mitigated.

In response to this inclement weather event, the effective operation of the "smart patrol + manual" mode has showcased the achievements of State Grid Shizuishan Power Supply Company in its digital transformation efforts. In recent years, the company has actively promoted new technology applications, continuously enhancing its operational intelligence in power management while significantly improving emergency response capabilities and ensuring a higher level of power supply safety.
