This paper presents a pole-mounted measurements system to detect the leakage current of surge arresters. Such a current is a paramount index to determine the aging of the surge arrester. Moreover, all the measurements acquired by the developed pole- mounted system are collected using drones. This way, in every drone flight a huge amount of data can be gathered from the grid. Hence, improving and fastening the power network monitoring and maintenance.
