Eminyakeni yamuva, imboni yegridi yamandla ibilokhu ihlola izindlela ezintsha zokuthuthukisa ukwethembeka nokusebenza kahle kokudluliswa nokusabalalisa amandla.Obunye ubuchwepheshe obuvele bushintsha umdlalo ikhebula le-OPGW.
OPGW, nomaI-Optical Ground Wire, wuhlobo lwekhebula le-fiber optic elihlanganiswe nemigqa yamandla angaphezulu.Ikhebula le-OPGW linikeza izinzuzo ezimbalwa embonini yegridi yamandla, okuhlanganisa ukuxhumana okuthuthukisiwe, ukwethembeka okukhulisiwe, nokuphepha okuthuthukisiwe.
Okokuqala nokubalulekile, ikhebula le-OPGW linika amandla ukuxhumana kwesikhathi sangempela phakathi kweziteshi ezingaphansi nezikhungo zokulawula.Lokhu kuxhumana kubalulekile ekusebenzeni okuthembekile nokusebenza kahle kwegridi yamandla.Ngokuhlanganisa ubuchwepheshe be-fiber optic kwizintambo zikagesi, ikhebula le-OPGW lihlinzeka ngenethiwekhi yokuxhumana ezinikele engaphazanyiswa ezinye izinto zikagesi.
Ikhebuli ye-OPGW iphinda ikhulise ukuthembeka kokudluliswa kwamandla kanye nezinhlelo zokusabalalisa.Ingabona amaphutha kanye nokulimala kwezintambo zikagesi ngesikhathi sangempela, okuvumela abasebenzisa igridi yamandla ukuthi babone ngokushesha futhi baxazulule izinkinga ngaphambi kokuba ziholele ekunqamukeni kukagesi.Ngaphezu kwalokho, ikhebula le-OPGW lingakwazi futhi ukusekela ukuqapha nokulawula okukude kwemishini yamandla, ithuthukise ukwethembeka kwesistimu.
Enye inzuzo yeIkhebula ye-OPGWi-e iwukuphepha okuthuthukisiwe kubo bobabili abasebenzisa igridi kagesi kanye nomphakathi.Ngokuhlinzeka ngenethiwekhi yokuxhumana ezinikele, ikhebula le-OPGW lingasiza ukuvimbela izingozi nezingozi ezingase zenzeke ngenxa yokuxhumana okunganele phakathi kwabaqhubi begridi yamandla nabasebenzi basensimini.Ukwengeza, ukusetshenziswa kobuchwepheshe be-fiber optic kungasiza ekwehliseni ubungozi bokushaywa kombani nezinye izingozi zikagesi.
Kafushane, ukuhlanganiswa kwekhebula le-OPGW ezinhlelweni zokudluliswa kwamandla kanye nokusabalalisa kunikeza izinzuzo ezimbalwa embonini yegridi yamandla, okuhlanganisa ukuxhumana okuthuthukisiwe, ukwethembeka okukhulisiwe, nokuphepha okuthuthukisiwe.Njengoba isidingo sokudluliswa kwamandla okuthembekile nokusebenza kahle siqhubeka nokwanda, ikhebula le-OPGW cishe lizoba ubuchwepheshe obubaluleke kakhulu embonini yegridi yamandla.
