This paper deals with some key technical problems in the inspections of i 000 kV UHVAC lines with a helicopter, such as the safe distance of live-line working, electromagnetic field intensity and flight control. Based on the study results, a set of UHV line inspection methods was worked out and applied to the inspection of live UHV lines.展开更多
