Abstract: An electrical fault detection system includes an underground transformer unit having an enclosure and an electrical busbar element extending from the enclosure, and an acoustic sensor apparatus operatively coupled to an external structure of the enclosure or the electrical busbar element. The acoustic sensor apparatus is structured to: (i) detect an acoustic signal within the enclosure, (ii) analyze the detected acoustic signal and determine whether the detected acoustic signal is indicative of an electrical fault within the enclosure using an event time correlation (ETC) algorithm, and (iii) responsive to determining that the detected acoustic signal is indicative of an electrical fault, output a message indicating that a fault has been detected.

Abstract: An electrical distribution system wherein information is communicated to and/or from an electrical component of the electrical distribution system using near-field communications. The information may be communicated to and/or from the electrical component using an electronic device such as a dedicated near-field device, a smartphone or a configuration card device. Also, a method of obtaining information from an electrical component of an electrical distribution system, such as a circuit interrupter, includes generating a machine readable element that comprises first information in encoded form, the first information relating to the operation and/or status of the circuit interrupter, displaying the machine readable element on the circuit interrupter, capturing an image of the machine readable element, obtaining the first information based on the image, and displaying second information based on the obtained first information.
