MUMBAI, India, Nov. 2 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202617098499 A) filed by Safegrid Oy on August 14, 2026, for Method And System For Fault Detection And Prediction In Electric Grids.
Inventors include Kovanen, Lauri; Anderson, Brady; Parkkinen, Juuso; Mickelsson, Tomi; Mntysalo, Tapio; and Musakka, Juho.
The application for the patent was published on October 30, 2026, under issue no. 44/2026.
Abstract: Disclosed is a method for predicting faults in an electric grid, the method comprising: detecting one or more events (102) that are precursors of one or more faults in the electric grid, the detection is based parameters associated with signals propagating in the electric grid or radiation produced by components in the electric grid; determining one or more locations (104), in the electric grid where the one or more events are detected, the determination is based on one or more of: a pattern of detection of the one or more events, weather conditions, traveling wave analysis, or location-specific sensor measurements; and generating an alert (100) that includes the one or more events, the one or more locations, and one or more components (106) of the electric grid in which the one or more events are detected, the alert corresponds to predictions of occurrences of the one or more faults.
