GAO Tek’s DC ground fault locators have the following functions:

• Detection: The primary function of our DC ground fault locator is to detect the presence of ground faults in DC electrical systems.
• Location: Once a ground fault has been detected, the GAO’s ground fault locator is used to determine the location of the fault within the system.
• Severity Assessment: GAO’s DC ground fault locator can also provide an indication of the severity of the fault, allowing operators to prioritize and plan for repairs.
• Minimize Downtime: By quickly and accurately locating ground faults, our DC ground fault locator can help to minimize downtime and prevent damage to equipment and infrastructure.
• Prevent Accidents: Ground faults can be a safety hazard, and our DC ground fault locator can help prevent accidents by identifying and addressing faults before they cause harm.
• Maintenance Planning: Data logging capabilities of GAO’s DC ground fault locator can provide insight into the frequency and severity of ground faults, helping to plan maintenance and repairs to prevent future faults.

GAO Tek’s DC ground fault locators are rugged, versatile and precision measurement instruments. They comply with applicable industry standards such as IEEE 142, IEEE 1584, NFPA 70E, UL 508A, IEC 61010, and CE marking.
