Abstract :
About 30 percent of all overhead power distribution outages are caused by failing electrical equipment, e.g., surge arresters, cutouts, insulators, wires, grounding, etc. Failing equipment can be located and scheduled for removal prior to an outage. Replacing failing equipment reduces all reliability index figures.
