context_page_description: A fault indicator is a device which provides visual or remote indication of a fault on the electric power system. Also called a faulted circuit indicator, the device is used in electric power distribution networks as a means of automatically detecting and identifying faults to reduce outage time.
  Overhead indicators are used to visualize the occurrence of an electrical fault on an overhead electrical system. Underground indicators locate faults on an underground system. Often these devices are located in an underground vault. Some fault indicators communicate back to a central location using radio or cellular signals.
