Modern home fault detection relies on advanced testing equipment and smart technologies that allow for precise identification of the source of the fault without the need for demolition or damage, whether in electrical, plumbing, or household appliances. The goal is to expedite repairs, reduce costs, and ensure safety.
Electrical Fault Detection
- Digital Testing Devices (Multimeter, Clamp Meter): Measure voltage, current, and resistance, and pinpoint faults in wires or switches.
- Ground Leakage Detectors: Locate damaged connections or exposed wires.
- Thermal Cameras: Detect elevated temperatures in panels or wires, indicating overload or connection faults.
- Smart Diagnostic Systems: Software linked to distribution panels to record faults and alert the user immediately.
Water Fault Detection
- Acoustic Leak Detectors: Use sound waves to locate leaks within walls or floors.
- Ground Radar (GPR): Detect buried pipes and pinpoint breaks or blockages.
- Internal Pipe Cameras: Insert through small openings to accurately image faults.
- Pressure and Flow Sensors: Monitor the network and detect any distribution malfunctions or abnormal pressure drops.
