1. A device for high-voltage or medium-voltage technology, the device comprising:
at least one connection configured to be connected to a high-voltage or medium-voltage conductor being at least one of a cable or a gas-insulated conductor or an overhead line conductor;
a sensor system configured to determine a plurality of at least one of different physical or chemical measurement values relating to at least one of the device or the conductor or the surroundings; and
a wirelessly operated communication system configured to receive the measurement values from said sensor system and to transmit the measurement values to an entity in a network, said wirelessly operated communication system being configured to allow bidirectional communication in order to:
obtain sensor configuration data and communicate the sensor configuration data to said sensor system, and
obtain control data and transmit the control data to components of the device in order to control operation of the device, and
transmit protection control data to components of the device in order to control protection functions of the device.
