Abstract:
A system for monitoring the integrity of a plurality of ground conductors has a plurality of monitors, with a different monitor associated with each ground conductor. Each monitor includes a voltage sensor which monitors voltage on a closed circuit of the monitor. Upon the voltage sensor sensing an unexpected voltage, a transmitter of the monitor issues an “alarm” signal, which may be wireless (e.g., being sent using LoRaWAN protocol). The transmitter may issue other signals, including a periodic “heartbeat” signal to confirm continued operation of the monitor, and a “movement” signal to indicate movement of the monitor. The monitor may be GPS-enabled, in which case each signal may include the GPS coordinates of the monitor. The signals issued by the transmitter may ultimately be analyzed by an operator via a user interface platform, which may simultaneously display information regarding two or more of the plurality of monitors.

Claim (Index 15):
The system of  claim 1 , wherein\n each one of said plurality of sensor nodes includes a motion sensor and a voltage sensor, each wireless transmitter is configured to transmit a \u201cmovement\u201d signal to the gateway upon the motion sensor of the associated sensor node sensing movement above a threshold amount, each wireless transmitter is configured to transmit a \u201ctheft\u201d signal to the gateway upon the voltage sensor of the associated sensor node sensing an unexpected voltage, and the user interface platform is configured to display an \u201calert\u201d condition indicative of possible compromise of the integrity of the ground conductor associated with the associated sensor node upon the gateway receiving at least one the \u201cmovement\u201d signal and the \u201ctheft\u201d signal.
