Abstract
A system and method for downhole switching of wellbore logging tools is disclosed. The method includes lowering a logging tool in a wellbore tubular, and actuating a mechanical interference device based on interaction with a first mechanical intrusion associated with a screen assembly located downhole in a wellbore. The mechanical interference device is included in an activator module associated with the logging tool. Based on actuating the mechanical interference device, the method includes communicating a first trigger indication to a switching system included with the activator module. In response to the first trigger indication, the method further includes switching the logging tool between an inactive state and an active state. In the active state, an electrical load associated with the logging tool is energized by a power supply.
