REMOTE ACTIVATION OF COMMUNICATION MODULES OF SELF-POWERED INTELLIGENT ELECTRONIC DEVICES

The invention relates to remote activation of a communication module of a self-powered intelligent electronic device (IED). The IED controls an auto recloser mounted on an electric pole of a power distribution network. A controller of the IED, receives an activation signal from a trigger source, positioned within a predefined distance from the IED, through an optical sensor to activate the communication module. A control signal is generated, upon the controller of the IED detecting the activation signal, for powering the communication module from a power supply module. The power supply module is enabled to power the communication module for a duration controlled with the control signal. The communication module is activated for communicating a plurality of data associated with the IED to a remote communication device upon enabling the power supply module for the communication module. 本发明涉及自供电智能电子装置(IED)的通信模块的远程激活。IED控制自动重合器，该自动重合器被安装在配电网的电杆上。IED的控制器经过光学传感器从触发源接收激活信号以激活通信模块，该触发源被定位在离IED的预定义距离之内。在IED的控制器检测到激活信号
