Abstract
A temperature monitoring apparatus configured to monitor a temperature of a portion of a vehicle's electrical energy distribution network is disclosed. The apparatus includes a first optical fibre including one or more temperature sensing sections, each temperature sensing section being for thermal contact with a portion of a vehicle's electrical energy distribution network. Each temperature sensing section is arranged to produce, in response to an optical input signal, an optical output signal indicative of the temperature of the temperature sensing section. The apparatus is arranged to determine a temperature of the portion of the vehicle's electrical energy distribution network based on one or more of the output optical signals in use.
