A FaultCurrent Limiter FCL is a device which limits the prospective faultcurrent when a fault occurs e.g. in a power transmission network . The term is generally applied to superconductivity superconducting devices , whereas non superconducting devices such as simple inductors or variable resistors are typically termed FaultCurrent Controllers. For example, the ground fault circuit interrupter is commonly used in residential installations. Types Superconducting FaultCurrent Limiters are described as being in one of two major categories resistance electricity resistive or inductance inductive . In a resistive FCL, the current passes through the superconductor and when a high faultcurrent begins, the superconductor quenches it becomes a normal conductor and the resistance rises sharply and quickly. This extra resistance in the system reduces the faultcurrent from what it would otherwise be the prospective faultcurrent . A resistive FCL can be either Direct current DC or Alternating current AC . If it is AC, then there will be a steady power dissipation from AC losses superconducting hysteresis losses which must be removed by the cryogenic system. An AC FCL is usually made from wire wound non inductively otherwise the inductance of the device would create an extra constant power ... and so the inductance of the device is low.

A fault indicator is a device which provides visual or remote indication of a Fault power engineering fault on the electric power system. Also called a faulted circuit indicator FCI , the device is used in electric power distribution networks as a means of automatically detecting and identifying Fault power engineering faults to reduce outage time. Overhead indicators are used to visualize the occurrence of an electrical fault on an overhead electrical system. Underground indicators locate faults on an underground system. Often these devices are located in an underground vault. Some fault indicators communicate back to a central location using radio or cellular signals. Basic principles During an electrical fault on a grounded system, additional current flows through a conductor, which is picked up by the fault indicator causing a state change on the mechanical target flag, LED , or remote indication device. Ground fault indicators for ungrounded systems sense the vector sum of the current and look for an imbalance indicating a fault on one or more of the three phases. High voltage Fuse electrical fuses commonly drop down after operating, making it obvious where the fault is. History The first fault indicators came onto the market from Horstmann Germany in 1946.

Orphan date October 2008 A Shunt fault is a type of fault that occurs in submarine communications cable s. Many such cables use underwater repeaters or amplifiers to boost signals being passed along the cable. These repeaters or amplifiers are powered from either end of the cable using Power Feed Equipment. This is achieved by applying a voltage to the metallic usually copper or aluminium core of the cable that surrounds the optical fibres. Typically both ends share the current generation with one end providing a positive voltage and the other a negative voltage. A virtual earth point exists roughly half way along the cable under normal operation. The amplifiers or repeaters derive their power from the potential difference drop across them. A shunt fault occurs when the cable insulation becomes damaged, such that there is a short circuit from the metallic core to the seawater directly. In this situation the virtual earth point will move to the shunt fault location. As long as the Power Feed Equipment farthest from the shunt fault has the capability of generating the additional voltage required to maintain the same current, the cable system will continue to carry traffic. This damage can be from anchor ship anchors , or fishing trawler s, currents dragging the cable along the sea floor, or even sea creatures. A repair will be scheduled at a convenient time whilst the cable continues to operate.

An arc fault is a high power discharge of electricity between two or more conductors. This discharge translates into heat, which can break down the wire s insulation and possibly trigger an electrical fire. These arc faults can range in power from a few amps up to thousands of amps high and are highly variable in terms of strength and duration. Common causes of arc faults include faulty connections due to corrosion and faulty initial installation. Location and detection Two types of wiring protection are standard thermal breakers and arc fault circuit breakers. The wire damage from thermal breakers are easier to find and repair, but is also very costly. The damage from an arc fault circuit breaker incurs less damage, even to the point where the wire can still be operational, but it is much more difficult to find. On top of this, the sensitivity of the arc fault circuit breaker, which allows it to detect arc faults can also produce false positives, which ascribe normal circuit behaviors as arc faults. For instance, lightning strikes on the outside of an aircraft mimic arc faults in their voltage and current profiles. Research has been able to largely eliminate such false positives, however, providing the ability to quickly identify and locate repairs that need to be done. ref Stephenson, James, Ph.D. http livewiretest.com eliminating false positives in the detection and location of sub 3ms faults on acdc lines Eliminating False Positives in the Detection and Location of sub 3ms Faults on AC DC Lines presented at the 2011 Aircraft Airworthiness & Sustainment Conference on April 19, 2011. ref In simple wiring systems visual inspection can lead to finding the fault location, but in complex ... analysis of spread spectrum time domain reflectometry for wire fault location Analysis of Spread Spectrum Time Domain Reflectometry for Wire Fault Location in IEEE Sensors Journal Dec 2005 . ref References Reflist See also Arc fault circuit interrupter Time domain reflectometer Category Articles ... more details
