Abstract

This paper addresses the use of innovative and unconventional instrumentation technologies for power systems. The main focus is on giant magnetoresistance, Faraday and Poeckels and other optical effect devices, Hall effect devices, satellite measurement technologies, mechanical measurements, lab on a chip / chemical sensing, and video technologies. It is suggested to utilize overhead conductor mechanical and thermal measurements to provide corrections for state estimation applications.
