Enhancing Grid Reliability

Our TE Kries fault indicators provide fast and accurate fault detection for overhead and underground power distribution systems, helping you minimize downtime and improve grid uptime.

For overhead lines, our TE Kries IKI-Overhead (IKI-OH) fault current indicators can be easily installed at strategic points throughout your grid. In the event of a short circuit, the IKI enables grid operators to quickly locate and repair faults, reducing unplanned outages and improving grid resilience.


For switchgear and underground networks, our TE Kries fault indicators can detect short-circuit and ground/earth faults with directional indication when paired with the TE Kries CAPDIS voltage detection system. They can be deployed on new or retrofit installations and communicate with a remote SCADA system. Our fault current indicators are designed to provide reliable fault detection and identification, enhancing grid transparency, operational safety, and efficiency.
