Abstract:
An apparatus mountable to a tower for detecting positional change of the tower includes a sensor component for detecting a change in inclination of the powerline tower; a communication component for communicating an alert regarding a change in inclination of the powerline tower; electrodes separated and electrically insulated from each other for enabling a differential in voltage at the electrodes resulting from a differential in electric field strength experienced at the electrodes when within a vicinity of powerlines; and electrical components electrically connected with the electrodes and configured to establish a circuit. The differential in voltage between the electrodes causes electric current to flow through the electric circuit for powering the device, including the sensor and the communication component. In alternative embodiments, a pathway to ground is provided, whereby a differential in voltage between one or more of the electrodes and ground causes electric current flow for powering the device.

Claim (Index 17):
The method of  claim 16 , wherein the information comprises an alert that is communicated by hopping the alert successively along each of the powerline towers using the communication components of the plurality of mounted devices.
