A substation in Yichang activated its intelligent inspection system consisting of a robotic dog, rail-mounted robots and drones on July 11.

Anfu Substation mainly supplies power to the region north of the Yangtze River in Yichang. Currently, its digital inspection system covers all equipment points, making Anfu a pioneer in intelligent inspection within Hubei Province. The new system reduces the time needed to check the whole station from 48 hours to 3 hours.

Meanwhile, 600 substations in Hubei are expected to implement intelligent inspection systems by the end of this year.
