Report Description Table of Contents The cable fault locator market was worth USD 710 million in 2023 and will be worth USD 1278.57 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 7.63% during the forecast period. The growth in the Cable Fault Locator market is affected by the growing requirement for uninterruptible power supply and the emergence of new power infrastructure in several parts of the world, especially in developing nations. Global energy demand is projected to grow by 30% by 2040 or earlier, and hence, the power grids will be under immense pressure to remain reliable and can diagnose and self-heal in the event of failure. The Cable fault locators contribute to reducing the downtimes of the systems by determining faults on underground and overhead cables. For example, in 2022, Megger introduced an advanced time-domain reflectometry (TDR) device for locating cable faults more accurately and efficiently. An increase in smart grid technologies and renewable power systems also helps drive the high performance of cable fault locators as fault identification becomes prominent in maintaining energy distribution reliability across networks. The Cable Fault Locator market is expected to have vast opportunities due to the increasing demand for effective and accurate power transmission systems deemed necessary, with the expected global renewable power capacity to rise by approximately 50% by 2025. This transition to renewable energy structures while at the same time having older power structures encourages a need for fault detection technologies. For example, Fluke Networks launched this new series of portable cable fault locators in 2023 and was equipped with higher accuracy for renewable energy industries such as wind and solar. Moreover, increasing trends of smart grid and automation in the utility industry create other opportunities for cable fault locators as these instruments are crucial to assuring system availability and minimizing outage time in today’s complex power networks.

The United States alone is projected to spend more than $100 billion to build the grid through 2030, with initiatives aimed at better fault inspection and fixing time. The growing use of smart grids and renewable energy facilities like solar and wind power has increased the call for cable fault detection technologies. Fluke Networks developed its newer model of portable cable fault locators in 2023 and aimed the product into the North American utility industry to improve its efficiency and thus reduce power failures. The continued focus on the ’shock-proofing’ of the region’s infrastructure and the constant enhancements to the continent’s utility infrastructure cement North America’s place as the global market’s leader.
