METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MONITORING POWER TRANSMISSION
An apparatus for measurement of power in an electric power transmission line is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a magnetic field sensor for measuring the magnetic field at the electric power transmission line and transmitting magnetic field data to a processor. The magnetic field sensor is arranged at a minimum threshold distance from the electric power transmission line. The apparatus also has a voltage sensor arranged distally from the magnetic field sensor for transmitting voltage waveform data to the processor and a transfer function calculator for calculating the relationship between the transmitted voltage waveform data at the voltage sensor and transmission line voltage waveform data.
