Abstract :
We investigate a practical semi-autonomous power distribution line maintenance robot system which performs job with task level directions that are, for examples, "Install a switch gear", "Remove the high voltage insulator", "Peel the coating off a cable", and so on. The maintenance tasks are now done by human operators above electric poles
