Mining operations depend on networks of High-Voltage Cables to power their fleet of excavators - that’s why when a faulty or damaged cable triggers an automatic shutdown, mining firms need a way to quickly determine which segment in a line needs to be replaced in order to

High-voltage cables are an integral piece of infrastructure powering production assets in our mining operation. Identifying damaged segments using current tools can be time consuming and manually intensive. Currently, there is no solution to identify damaged segments and each cable must be checked individually.
- Aaron Somers, Superintendent - Asset Health Rio Tinto
To date, this problem is solved by teams of electrical engineers walking the cable length and manually identifying the damaged segment, meaning hours of downtime and hundreds of
Worse still are the health & safety challenges this challenge poses: each shutdown requires these teams to interact with hazardous cable segments charged with up to 14,000 volts of electricity.
