Routine Fault Loop Testing

Electrical installations located far from the power supply source face several risks:

  • High fault loop impedance
  • Potential faults (such as high resistance or loose connections in phase or neutral conductors)
  • High voltage drops, resulting in poor power quality and high voltage harmonics

 

The Solution:

The GES system provides 24/7 monitoring for:

  • Resistance of conductors
  • Fault loop impedance for all potential short circuit types
  • Voltage drops along the line
  • Power quality
  • Detection of loose connections, phase loss, or neutral faults

 

Case Study 1:

In a municipal facility's street lighting infrastructure, the GES system detected a loose connection in the supply line. The system issued an early-stage alert to the facility owner, enabling prompt intervention before the issue escalated.

Thanks to this alert, an electrician was sent to perform a targeted repair, preventing a safety hazard of electrical shock from the pole and protecting pedestrians from potential electrocution.
