FMP Alliance Forms to Advance Innovative Fault Managed Power Technology

April 15, 2024

The FMP Alliance is an open industry association that advocates, promotes, and advances Fault Managed Power technologies. Together, the FMP Alliance has united to champion and encourage widespread adoption of fault managed power technology across diverse industries.

Fault managed power is an advanced technology designed to elevate the safety, dependability, and efficiency of power systems. By actively identifying and addressing faults with power networks, FMP ensures a more robust and consistent power supply, leading to heightened safety and enhanced operational performance, while also enabling faster deployment and reduced material. Additionally, compared to certain traditional power distribution methods, fault managed power can achieve higher efficiency. We expect this technology to help lower costs and reduce emissions for a wide range of industries from building construction to information technology.

The founding members of the FMP Alliance bring together extensive expertise and experience in the realm of power technology. Each company, namely Belden, Cisco Systems, Panduit, Prysmian, and VoltServer, stands as a recognized leader in its respective field. Through the collective efforts of these industry leaders within the Alliance, the adoption of fault managed power is accelerated.

The primary goals of the FMP Alliance include:
  • Industry Leadership: Functioning as a cohesive voice, FMP Alliance actively promotes the adoption of fault managed power across various industries, emphasizing its merits and applications.
  • Standards Advocacy: The FMP Alliance actively contributes to shaping industry standards and regulations for fault managed power.
  • Education and Awareness: The Alliance plays a pivotal role in educating stakeholders on the benefits of fault managed power technology and fostering awareness about its transformative potential in power systems.

The FMP Alliance is actively seeking members from a range of industries to establish a dynamic ecosystem that supports this groundbreaking technology. Additionally, the Alliance promotes collaboration and partnerships with organizations, government entities, and stakeholders who share an interest in advancing fault managed power technology.
