Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method of deployment of a power monitor system includes: coupling a monitor device that has a measurement component to a power line communication device for communicating a physical quantity measured by the measurement component across a power line; inserting a connection tap of an electrical access device into the power line through an insulation sheath to a conductor within the power line; attaching the electrical access device to the power line; and coupling electrically the electrical access device to the monitor device and the power line communication device.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A power monitor system, comprising: a power line communication modem to communicate messages across a power line, wherein the power line communication modem communicates in accordance with a power line communication (PLC) protocol; a monitor device having a measurement component coupled to the power line communication modem, wherein the monitor device is configured to monitor an electrical property as measured by the measurement component across the power…
