Fuel Overconsumption
The Fuel Overconsumption Alert is triggered when fuel usage exceeds the expected consumption limits based on configured distance based fuel consumption & duration based fuel consumption parameters. This alert requires a fuel sensor to be attached and properly configured. It helps fleet managers identify abnormal fuel usage early and take timely action to improve efficiency and protect fuel assets.

Parameters Considered (Prerequisites)
- Fuel sensor configuration: Fuel sensor needs to be configured.
- Distance based Fuel consumption & Duration based fuel consumption needs to be configured.
Please Note:

To configure Distance based Fuel consumption & Duration based fuel consumption go to Settings -> General -> Vehicle/Object -> Profile.
Please Note: The alert will be generated when the IGN is turned OFF.

Example
A Fuel Overconsumption Alert is triggered when fuel consumption exceeds the configured Distance based Fuel consumption & Duration based fuel consumption thresholds while a fuel sensor is connected. Notifications are sent via SMS, Email, or In-App Notification, enabling fleet managers to respond immediately, investigate excessive fuel usage, and take corrective measures to prevent fuel wastage, theft, or inefficient driving behavior.
