Electrical Faults

An electrical fault is an abnormal condition in an electrical system that disrupts its regular flow of electricity. Electrical faults can occur in all aspects of power generation, transmission, distribution and utilization. Electrical faults can lead to issues such as overheating, equipment damage, power outages and safety hazards. Common causes of electrical malfunctioning include insulation breakdown, improper wiring, equipment failure and overloading. Protective devices like fuses, circuit breakers and relays can detect an electrical fault quickly. These mechanisms are designed to promptly interrupt the current flow in case of a problem and protect the system from further harm. Short Circuit…
