Through this partnership with Hydro-Qu\u00e9bec, we will apply our expertise in the power transmission sector,\u201d added Mathieu\u00a0Beauchesne, Vice President of Operations at Nucleom.<\/p>\n<p>The LineCore sensor takes a non-destructive approach to determining the galvanic protection on transmission and distribution line conductors, including live ones. It accurately measures the thickness of the zinc layer across an entire span and detects anomalies caused by corrosion without sampling. As for the LineOhm sensor, it makes it possible to assess the condition of the splice sleeves that connect two conductors.<\/p>\n<p>The devices are used to carry out rigorous monitoring on lines exposed to conditions that are likely to shorten their service life, such as those occurring in marine climates and areas prone to adverse weather.<\/p>\n<p>The LineCore and LineOhm sensors may be deployed on a line using obstacle clearing inspection tools developed by Hydro-Qu\u00e9bec, including LineScout, LineRanger and LineDrone, which is the subject of a recent industrialization and commercialization agreement between <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dronevolt.com\/wp-content\/dv-investors\/documents\/CO\/20201029DRONE-VOLT-signature-entente-DV-HydroQuebec.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DRONE VOLT and Hydro-Qu\u00e9bec<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The agreement between Nucleom and Hydro-Qu\u00e9bec stipulates that, following the initial industrialization phase, Nucleom will provide its customers with a line inspection service that relies on the new self-propelled version of the\u00a0LineCore sensors.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"title-bold\">About <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hydroquebec.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hydro-Qu\u00e9bec<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>Hydro-Qu\u00e9bec generates, transmits and distributes electricity.
