In electric power distribution networks, a fault indicator is a device which provides visual or remote indication of a fault on the electric power system. Also called a faulted circuit indicator (FCI), [1] the device is used in electric power distribution networks as a means of automatically detecting and identifying faults to reduce outage time.
For example, lighting up a fault indicator in situations if human intervention is not required induces breakage by causing maintenance personnel to perform work when nothing is already broken. Another example is that enabling fault reporting for Internet network packet delivery failure increases network loading when the network is already busy ...
Fault detection, isolation, and recovery (FDIR) is a subfield of control engineering which concerns itself with monitoring a system, identifying when a fault has occurred, and pinpointing the type of fault and its location. Two approaches can be distinguished: A direct pattern recognition of sensor readings that indicate a fault and an analysis ...
graph with an example of steps in a failure mode and effects analysis. Failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA; often written with "failure modes" in plural) is the process of reviewing as many components, assemblies, and subsystems as possible to identify potential failure modes in a system and their causes and effects.
A police officer who fatally shocked a 95-year-old woman with a Taser in an Australian nursing home has been found guilty of manslaughter after the jury found that the great-grandmother, who was ...
Lizzo is telling her truth.. The "Truth Hurts" rapper and singer is resurfacing after a sexual assault lawsuit filed by former dancers last year derailed her career. On Thursday's episode of "Baby ...
A fault tree diagram. Fault tree analysis (FTA) is a type of failure analysis in which an undesired state of a system is examined. This analysis method is mainly used in safety engineering and reliability engineering to understand how systems can fail, to identify the best ways to reduce risk and to determine (or get a feeling for) event rates of a safety accident or a particular system level ...
The "Alternatives to Detention" program is tracking more than 25,000 migrants using ankle and wrist-worn monitors, which costs taxpayers an average of nearly $80,000 each day, according to ICE data.
