Radio Faulted Circuit Indicator System

FCI-RadioSystem

  • The Fisher Pierce Radio Faulted Circuit Indicator (RFCI) System utilizes wireless communication technology to assist in locating distribution system faulted circuits. RFCI’s installed in overhead, underground, and padmount locations can be detected from handheld radio receivers. Linemen in a moving vehicle can quickly locate the RFCI and receive their status.

    The internal radio transmitter reports the faulted phase information to the handheld or a SCADA receiver. The handheld receiver has an audible alarm and LED display with phase indication. The SCADA receiver connects to remote terminal status inputs and reports individual phase faults. Fisher Pierce faulted circuit indicators include models with inrush restraint, manual reset, time delay, current reset, and Adaptive Trip™.
