Abstract

This paper reviews the use of Electrical Transmission Line Inspection Robots (ETLIRs) from to , emphasizing their importance in detecting faults early and ensuring efficient power transmission. It explores climbing, flying, and hybrid (climbing-flying) robots, highlighting their structures, operations, and limitations. While climbing robots offer proximity for reliable data, challenges like landing and obstacle avoidance persist. Hybrid robots show promise by combining climbing and flying capabilities. The paper also discusses challenges like power supply, obstacle detection, and control systems, and suggests future research directions such as enhancing battery capacity, improving fault detection, addressing electromagnetic shielding, implementing de-icing mechanisms, and developing advanced control techniques for wind disturbances.
