Abstract
A perforating gun string includes a release tool, a perforating gun, and a plug. The perforating gun string may include or be part of a downhole tool that is electrically communicable via a control system. A first switch (or 'RT switch') is associated with the release tool and is operably coupled to a first detonator. A second switch (or “gun switch”) is associated with the perforating gun and is operably coupled to a second detonator. A third switch (or “plug switch”) is associated with the plug and is operably coupled to an igniter. A counter system includes a plurality of counters adapted to track usage of one or more switches in the perforating gun string, including the first switch, the second switch, the third switch, or any combination thereof.
