Electricity is a necessity for humankind. Electricity demand will continue to rise globally as the quality of living rises and the population grows. Electricity supply that is reliable and steady is critical to the general development of all nations. A faulted circuit indicator is a critical and commonly used component in power supply and distribution.
The faulted circuit indicator indicates defects in electric power systems visually or remotely. Faulted electric indicators are used in power distribution networks to detect faults automatically and reduce users' outage duration. The faulted circuit indicator typically detects a magnetic or electric field surrounding the conductor to identify faults. Advanced faulted circuit indicators may also employ various fault detection technologies. A faulted circuit indicator is utilized in tandem with a current transformer, a circuit breaker, a load break switch, and other components. A faulted circuit indicator changes the condition of the LED, mechanical target flag, remote indication system, and so on. Faulted circuit indicator is employed in the development of smart grids on IoT-based systems.
The increasing need for electricity around the world is a major aspect projected to drive the global faulted circuit indicator (FCI) market during the forecast period. Moreover, the modernization of old electrical infrastructure increases the requirement for sophisticated faulted circuit indicators. Renewables connectivity, grid growth, maintenance and repair, reinforcement, and international grid connection links are significant factors expected to boost the global faulted circuit indicator (FCI) market.
The Asia Pacific faulted circuit indicator (FCI) market is expected to grow during the forecast period.
