The frequency and scale of grid outages in the U.S. are on the wrong trajectory. Between 2011 and 2021, there were 64 percent more major power outages than the previous decade.

A big challenge utilities face in reversing this trend is continuing to rely on imprecise and expensive fault location tools. Valuable time is lost when utilities can’t quickly pinpoint the location of a fault that has caused a power interruption or outage. Fortunately, new fault location tools are available. Download this playbook to learn:

• Why fault passage indicators (FPIs), impedance models, relays, meters and digital fault recorders (DFRs) struggle to quickly locate faults.
• How cloud-based software and sensors deliver a cost-effective and accurate fault location solution.  
• Why software and sensors deliver on the promise of preventative maintenance.
