Abstract

Method and system for monitoring parameters of a cable system of an electric power transmission system, wherein: a plurality of monitoring nodes is associated with different monitoring points of the cable system; the monitoring nodes are operated alternatively in a sleeping mode and in an active mode; in the active modes the monitoring nodes acquire values of at least one of said parameters and process the acquired values so as to generate corresponding output data; a central unit collects the output data generated by the monitoring nodes; the output data generated by the monitoring nodes are sent from the monitoring nodes, when in active mode, toward the central unit by making them pass from one of the monitoring nodes to another, by starting from the monitoring node that generates the output data until a last of the monitoring nodes, which forwards the output data to the central unit.
