What is grid faulting?

Grid faulting refers to a type of electrical fault that occurs in power distribution systems, particularly within the grid infrastructure. It typically involves unintended interruptions or anomalies in the flow of electricity, such as short circuits or overloads, which can disrupt the balance of supply and demand. This can result in equipment damage, outages, and safety hazards. Effective monitoring and protection mechanisms are essential to detect and mitigate grid faults promptly.
