Abstract
A method monitors an energy transmission device, in particular an energy transmission line or an energy distribution network, via which electric current is transmitted at a predefined network frequency. An electrical measurement signal having at least one non-network frequency, i.e. a frequency which differs from the network frequency, or a non-network frequency band, is fed into the energy transmission device at a predefined position thereon. An electrical measured quantity related to the non-network frequency or the non-network frequency band is measured at the predefined position or a different position on the energy transmission device with the formation of at least one measured value or frequency-band-related measured value characteristic. A fault signal is generated if the measured value, the frequency-band-related measured value characteristic, a comparative value or comparative value characteristic formed with the measured value or the measured value characteristic indicates a fault in the energy transmission device.
