2020-9-25 · High-impedance faults (HIFs) are defined as unwanted electrical contact between a bare-energized conductor and a non-conducting foreign object. Non-conductors present high impedances to current flow due to their material, so a fault of this type will not appear to the protection equipment as an abnormal condition.
