STERLING BusbarGuard AI™

Wireless Temperature Monitoring System for Electric Busbars — Predictive Maintenance

Predictive maintenance for electric busbars, joints, cable terminations and switchgear. Clip-on wireless temperature sensors, STERLING gateways and analytics turn a rising busbar temperature into a planned maintenance job — long before a flashover.

STERLING wireless temperature sensor for electric busbar joints

Wireless temperature sensor — STERLING SET-WTS-01

See the hot joint weeks before it fails

Loose connections, ageing contacts and overload raise busbar temperature long before a flashover. STERLING clip-on sensors sit directly on the live busbar, report every few minutes and turn a rising trend into a planned maintenance job — not an outage. One system, from sensor to alarm: STERLING BusbarGuard AI™.

  • Clip-on sensor for LT and HT joints — no wiring, no external supply
  • 10-year battery, IP67 sealed, 2.4 GHz self-healing mesh
  • One gateway collects up to 500 sensors over 500 m
  • Trend, rate-of-rise and phase-difference alerts
  • SCADA (Modbus TCP, IEC 61850, OPC UA) and cloud dashboard
  • Every sensor and gateway carries the STERLING nameplate

Each solution combines the sensors, gateways, PLC/SCADA integration and analytics we supply ourselves — so one team owns the instrument, the data and the alarm.

DamShield AI dam safety monitoring illustration

STERLING DamShield AI™

Dam safety instrumentation and analytics in one dashboard: deformation, seepage, pore pressure, settlement and reservoir levels. Early abnormality alerts help dam owners act before a structural or flood event.

DeformationSeepageEarly warning
StructureShield AI structural health monitoring illustration

STERLING StructureShield AI™

Structural health for dams, bridges and buildings using GNSS, inclinometers, crack gauges and vibration sensors. Asset owners get a live health index and a clear inspection priority instead of periodic manual surveys.

AshShield AI ash bund and embankment monitoring illustration

STERLING AshShield AI™

Ash bund and embankment safety: settlement, slope movement, seepage and ground deformation. Built for thermal plants that must keep ash dykes stable through monsoon loading and continuous ash deposition.

MotorShield AI motor condition monitoring illustration

STERLING MotorShield AI™

Motor current signature analysis combined with vibration and temperature analytics. Bearing, rotor and misalignment faults are flagged weeks before a forced outage, so the motor is repaired on a planned stop.
