Abstract

See full text

Disclosed herein are methods, apparatuses, and systems for protection of distribution networks against overcurrents caused by faults in residential circuits. In an embodiment, a smart meter monitors a circuit for a particular condition and may adjust the power to a circuit when the condition is detected. In an embodiment, when an overcurrent condition is detected in a residential circuit, the residential circuit may be disconnected by a smart meter from a distribution network before it is seen by a recloser and therefore may isolate an outage to a single home.
