The type HYI short circuit fault indicators are designed to indicate the short circuit fault and to identify fault locations. They are used in cable and overhead poer lines up to 35 kV. They meet the requirements of various environmental conditions. By virtue of the employments of the technology of the minimum power consumption, they are supposed to be eco-friendly with merits like long life expectancy and accurate indication. Their function of accurate fault locating enables the operator to identify the fault sections easily and to isolate them time in time. As a result, it shortens the range and time of power outage, and increase the reliability of power supply. HYI short circuit fault indicator can be classified into two groups according to their application, the cable type and the overhead type. The cable ones are used in pad-mounted transformer, switchgear, power cable pillar and etc, and the overhead type on the outdoor overhead power lines.
