Pole Fire Avoided!
Sicuro’s in-vehicle sensor detected an RF emission while the team was patrolling a circuit. Current leakage from failing equipment was tracking to ground, drying the wood, heating the metal, and beginning to burn the pole. The burn mark was not visible from the road. Had it not been detected, a major pole fire would have ensued. The customer was able to deploy a crew and avoid an unnecessary fire and outage.
