Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories recently announced the release of the LINAM UGFI Underground Fault Indicator, a product of the E. O. Schweitzer Manufacturing facility in Lake Zurich, Illinois. The ...

AWARE uses waveform signatures to detect and classify early-stage grid faults, enabling proactive intervention. The system combines physics-based models with AI/ML to interpret subtle electrical ...

According to the IEEE Buff Book, "A power cable must be protected from overheating due to excessive short-circuit current flowing in its conductor," which may damage or destroy the insulation. It also ...

Designers parallel their power supplies to increase system power output or to provide fault tolerance. In this column, Contributing Editor Tom Curatolo discusses various techniques for load sharing ...

If your circuit design has requirements to be tolerant to certain faults and to report their occurrence, you’ll need to test the fault detection and protection features of your design during the test ...

Picture this scenario: At 2:37 a.m. during a storm, lightning strikes a distribution feeder line in rural Wisconsin. A massive power surge races through the distribution network. Instead of triggering ...
