This guide provides reference information to assist electric utilities and their contractors with the development of computer-based means for collecting and managing transmission line inspection and maintenance data and associated asset information including transmission line inventory data. It provides a high-level overview of key principles and considerations learned through experience that helps to ensure common pitfalls are avoided and enhances the usability of systems. It is not intended to provide an exhaustive discussion of the many details and specifics that should be accounted for when designing and developing a system for an individual utility’s application and needs.
The guide provides easy-to-use reference information that serves as a framework and roadmap for designing efficient and effective systems to facilitate and/or enhance the following:–Data collection–Field and office usability (both for processing and visualization)–Data integrity in each phase of data management–Compatibility with geographic information systems (GIS) and enterprise solutions–Data exchange with other systems and users–System expansion and modification–Transferability of data (from one system to another, i.e., due to system upgrade or implementation of a new system)–Risk assessment–Data analysis and analytics–Application of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) tools–Reporting–Security–Flexibility to adapt to system and regulatory changes
Revision Standard – Active. Reference information to assist electric utilities and their contractors with the development of computer-based means for collecting and managing transmission line inspection and maintenance data and associated asset information is provided. A high-level overview is provided in this guide for key principles and considerations learned through experience that help ensure common pitfalls are avoided and enhance the usability of systems and collected data. It is not intended to provide an exhaustive discussion of the many details and specifics accounted for when designing and developing a system including data requirements for an individual utility’s application and needs.
