Use of drones in splicing chambers to minimise maintenance personnel access risks

Underground cable splices are among the most important components of our underground infrastructure, and therefore, maintenance teams require stringent safety measures beforehand to access them, as they are confined spaces that may present physical limitations for inflow and outflow of natural ventilation. Additionally, toxic and flammable gases can accumulate inside. The atmosphere within the confined space may be oxygen-deficient, posing a health risk to workers.
