NOTE
FAULT DETECTION
Fault detection
Fault detection is the process of identifying abnormalities or deviations from expected behavior in a system or device. It helps identify issues or malfunctions, allowing for timely maintenance or corrective actions to prevent further problems.
Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting in technology involves diagnosing and resolving problems or issues that arise in electronic devices, software, or systems. It includes identifying the root cause of malfunctions, analyzing error messages, and implementing solutions to restore functionality. Troubleshooting is a systematic process used to address technical problems and ensure the smooth operation of technology.
Tools and instruments for fault detection
Various tools and instruments are used for fault detection in different domains:
1. Multimeter: Measures voltage, current, and resistance to identify electrical issues.
2. Oscilloscope: Captures and analyzes electronic signals, helpful for diagnosing problems in circuits.
3. Network Analyzers: Detects issues in computer networks, such as connectivity problems or network congestion.
4. Fault Locators: Used in telecommunications to identify faults in cables or transmission lines.
5. Diagnostic Software: For computers and software systems, tools like system monitoring software or debugging tools help identify and fix issues.
6. Power Quality Analyzer: Monitors and analyzes electrical power to detect irregularities affecting equipment.
7. Gas Detectors: Detects leaks or abnormal levels of gases in industrial settings.
8. Circuit Testers: Checks the continuity and integrity of electrical circuits.
