Power Failure Investigations



Today when a fault occurs in a high or low-voltage public, industrial or rail traction network, it is vital that the cause is traced in order to resolve liability issues and prevent recurrence. 
Regulators, utilities, industrial power users, consumers and insurers are increasingly focused on understanding exactly where blame for power faults lies. 
In the event of a fault, the network manager needs to begin a thorough investigation that:
  • accounts for all relevant components and issues
  • proceeds quickly and responsively
  • culminates in a full report.
