Abstract
Provided herein are systems, methods, and devices for controlling power to radio equipment that services antennas mounted on a structure, and disabling power to the same when either technicians are present or when the structure has tilted. The systems may include a main board comprising a processor and an isolation board located at least partially within the structure. The isolation board may be configured to transmit to the processor a signal when an input is received via a switch and periodically transmit an indication of an acceleration of the structure due to gravity in a selected axis. The processor may be configured to disconnect power to a radio unit servicing the antenna based on an occurrence of either receiving the first signal or determining that a tilt angle of the structure has exceeded a predetermined threshold for a predetermined period.
