Abstract
Techniques, methods, systems and articles are described for monitoring electrical equipment of a power grid, identifying installation and/or configuration errors of such electrical equipment, and automatically correcting the errors. In one example, a system includes at least one processor and a plurality of sensors coupled to a multi-phase power line comprising a plurality of electrical cables that are each associated with a respective phase. The plurality of sensors are configured to generate sensor data that is indicative of one or more conditions of the electrical cables. The at least one processor is configured to receive the sensor data and determine, based at least in part on the sensor data, whether a sensor of the plurality of sensors is installed correctly. The at least one processor is also configured to perform an action in response to determining that the sensor is not installed correctly.
