What is it?
The Alarms Rules & Events page is where you define Rules and Event-triggers based on data from your monitored power lines. It is currently possible to define rules for temperature, current, sag, clearance, ice load, and clearanceampacity. This page lets you create, edit, and delete rules and event - triggers for whole lines and/or specified spans. The You can view the defined rules and triggers can be viewed on this page, and together with the triggered events and alarms can also be seen.
.
As mentioned previously, you can define rules and triggers for whole lines or specified spans (the line section between two pylons). Events can be of the six following types:
Thermal - The temperature of the line is monitored and triggered upon.
Current - The current flowing in the conductor is monitored and triggered upon.
Clearance - The clearance (lowest distance between conductor and ground) is monitored and triggered upon.
Sag - The sag (the vertical difference in level between points of support and the lowest point of the conductor) is monitored and triggered upon.
Icing - The amount of ice load [kg/m] is monitored and triggered upon.
Ampacity - Where the aggregated ampacity of a line is monitored and triggered upon.

Event Log - The event log contains the triggered events and alarms. Each alarm has a timestamp, color-coding, threshold value, trigger value, duration, and a custom specified comment.
Rules and Event-triggers overview - This overview contains all the specified rules and event-triggers. They are grouped by the type (Thermal, Current, Clearance, Sag, Ice Load, and Sag Ampacity), and clicking one of the types expands the type and shows all the defined rules and triggers of this type. It is in this view that the user can create, edit, and delete rules and triggers.
How to use
Rules You, as a user, can use rules and Events can be used for multiple purposes;
Define rules and event - triggers to get notifications in-app and/or via SMS or email when a power line goes above or below a defined threshold. This will help the user you, as a user, to quickly take action on severe alarms in the power grid or inform the user you of events in the grid.
Rules You can define rules, and event - triggers can be defined to get statistics of, e.g., how many times your power line equipment has been loaded over/under a specified threshold. ? How many times has the power line has been operated over/under a specified temperature. ? How many times has the power line have had an excessive sag. ?
