Two inventions win patent rights

Two inventions of Zhangjiagang Power Supply Company have won national practical new-style patent rights, according to the State Intellectual Property Office.

The inventions – an intelligent cable device and a customer substation cooling control circuit – were designed by customer service center employees to solve problems that occurred during checks of families and electric meters. They also help reduce electric accidents at customer substations.

The inventions are new tools based on automation technology and digital technology applications.

The intelligent cable device helps raise work efficiency by avoiding the use of intercoms. With the device, only one worker can be sent to check connections between families and electric meters.
