Title :
OH and UG fault indication via radio networks
Abstract :
Fault indication on electrical distribution circuits using today´s communication technology options can provide secure, near instantaneous feedback to utility operating personnel, allowing them to make intelligent switching decisions resulting in reduction of outage time and increased power delivery quality. The application of fault indicator technology to terrestrial radio wave propagation is spawning a new generation of interest in fault indicator products and their capabilities
