Fault passage indicator FPI-FD-05

Benefits

  • Brightest Light 360° Visibility-3 ultra bright wide-angle LEDs provide overlapping fields of light.
  • Simple installation — using a single hot stick.
  • Dynamically changing sensitivity based on a load current
  • Minimum fault sensing 0.5A
  • Enhanced resistance to interference conditions in the air

Overhead type earthing and short circuit fault indicator

The FPI-FD-05 model is designed for use in isolated and compensated networks with extremely low ground fault current. The device has high accuracy in detecting various types of faults. Error registration is based on a specialized intelligent algorithm that allows detecting a ground fault (PtG) and determining its direction already at a current value of 0.5 A.

The device can be used in any type of network with different types of neutral grounding. The automatic ground fault detection setting function eliminates the need to adjust the zero sequence current threshold.
