ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a remotely accessible electrical fault detection system. According to one preferred embodiment, the system includes a weather-resistant housing having a mount adapted for mating to an aperture in an outer wall of a utility cabinet containing an electrical network; a circuit adapted for connection to the electrical network, wherein the circuit includes at least one of a transmitter and a receiver; and an antenna located inside the weather-resistant housing and coupled to the circuit. In operation, the transmitter can broadcast a radio frequency fault signal to a remote communication device, in response to the electrical network detecting a fault condition.
