According to TeleGeography A1 Belarus has reported a successful pilot based on its NB-IoT network in partnership with power company Gomelenergo in the Gomel region, improving the safety of electrical installations and saving costs.
The power grid solution involves a security device connected via NB-IoT which controls the opening of transformer substation doors, installation/disarming with an electronic key or remotely, sounds an alarm in the case of unauthorised access, measures the voltage level at the substation and transmits status data which enables inspection teams to be sent in a timely manner if required
