Hubei has a lengthy history in the generation of electricity. Looking back, state-run industrial enterprises were the foundation of Hubei's electricity industry. The Hubei Official Weaving Bureau, founded by Zhang Zhidong in Wuchang, lit the first electric light in Hubei in 1893, signaling the city's adoption of electricity. Hubei's public electric utility industry began with the establishment of the "Hanzhen Jiji Hydroelectric Joint Stock Company" in 1906.

Public safety depends on the proper inspection of power equipment. Conventional manual inspections require a lot of labor, time, and inefficiency. 

Inspection efficiency can be greatly increased by implementing intelligent inspections through the use of RFID readers. 

In the inspection phase, the AUTOID UTouch RFID Reader serves to establish the location details and can identify RFID tags related to power equipment from a distance in a remote manner.
