State Grid Suqian applies new tools to accelerate maintenance operations

On March 17, State Grid Suqian Power Supply Co (State Grid Suqian) has introduced a new tool that automates the entry of maintenance plans, replacing manual input with one-click batch uploads to improve efficiency and safety.

During the spring and autumn inspection periods, there is high demand for power grid maintenance, with over a hundred substation operation tasks per week. Previously, safety officers had to manually check 19 pieces of data, including a report by each team, and input them into the safety control platform. The time spent on the input process alone was more than five hours each week, and the risk of error was high.

State Grid Suqian launched large-scale tests at the end of 2025 and has put the intelligent input tool into use in March this year. The tool, relying on artificial intelligence and pattern recognition technology, can automatically read the information reported by each team as well as analyze and fill in key data, such as operation time, personnel qualifications, and power outage range.

The tool also integrates multiple risk verification mechanisms, which can proactively identify potential safety hazards such as personnel conflicts and missing power outage plans at the source of data entry. The software adopts an internal network circulation and one-click deployment mode, fully ensuring data security and ease of use.

The new tool has reduced the time spent inputting substation operation plans each week from five hours to less than 15 minutes, while greatly reducing the human input and operation error rate. This not only frees employees from the need to engage in repetitive tasks, but also effectively strengthens operational safety control, laying a solid technical foundation for the safe and stable operation of the power grid during the spring and autumn inspection periods.
