Discover What Fault-Managed Power Makes Possible
Do you have a project where getting power where you need it is difficult, expensive, disruptive, or limiting? There may be a better way.
A new way to distribute power
What is Fault-Managed Power?
Fault-Managed Power—recognized as Class 4 power in the National Electrical Code—uses intelligent transmitters and receivers to safely distribute power over distance.
The system continuously monitors the circuit and rapidly stops the flow of electricity when it detects a fault or unsafe condition. FMP systems can also use smaller conductors and different wiring methods than conventional branch circuits, reducing the need for conduit and making power easier to route in many applications. Together, these safety and installation characteristics create new options for distributing power.
