Fault Indicator IK-40

Modular fault indicator for local and remote supervision of earth and short-circuit faults in MV cable and overhead networks.

The IK-40 fault indicator has up to four independent fault indication modules. It connects to LPCT or SS-10/SS-20 current sensors and LPVT voltage sensors, samples currents and voltages, and runs algorithms for local and remote fault detection, indication and recording.

  • Modular design

    Up to 4 fault indication modules enable use across multiple feeder bays.

  • Current and voltage sensors

    Supports LPCT, SS-10 and SS-20 current sensors as well as LPVT voltage sensors.

  • Directional detection

    Algorithms cover ANSI 50/51, 50N/51N, 67/67N, 27, 47, 59/59N, 21YN and 32N.

  • Fault record registration

    Combined with UST-10Gc, it supports COMTRADE fault record registration.

  • USB and remote parameterization

    Settings can be configured locally via USB, remotely, or with IK Dialog software.
