Abstract
A system and method for transmitting data over a three phase power system between a surface and a sub-surface location. A first power supply providing a first AC power signal and a second power supply providing a second AC power signal are at the surface. A first powered module and a second powered module which provides a data communications signal are at the sub-surface. A cable connection is provided between the surface and the sub-surface to transmit the power and data communication signals. The data communications signal provides an indication of power applied to the second powered module and a power signal is varied in response to the applied power. The invention finds specific application monitoring down hole equipment such as an electrical submersible pump in a wellbore.
