Technological advancements in power distribution system fault management techniques have made it possible to transport greater magnitudes of power while greatly reducing the risk of human shock and fire hazard. FMPS technology combine DC power and codified signaling, which is transmitted and received between power sourcing equipment (PSE) and powered devices (PDs). Proprietary techniques rapidly detect any fault condition and immediately shut down the source voltage. This permits higher voltages which allow efficient power transmission over much longer distances without reliance on high currents and large gauge copper wires. Both approaches provide dramatic safety improvements over conventional power distribution methods. This webinar will explore the technologies and various applications of FMP and how they will integrate with advanced power systems including microgrids.
