san Andreas fault
Most earthquakes occur on active fault lines such as the San Andreas fault in California. Most fault lines are under water but some come above water, such as the San Andreas fault in San Francisco and the fault line in Iceland. The San Andreas fault caused the great fire in San Francisco.
The largest geographical fault in California is the San Andres fault. This large fault is responsible for the largest quakes to hit the state. The San Jacinto, Elsinore, and Imperial are smaller parallel faults to the San Andres.
The tallest fault block mountain in the world is Mt. Whitney in the Sierra Nevada. It is 14,505 feet tall, or 4,421 meters.
The most noteworthy is the San Andreas fault.
california, i think
Because it is right on the fault line, and it is right in the most active part of California.
That would be the San Andreas fault line.

California is situated on a large fault line that extends from north to south.
The California coast! The San Andreas Fault Line.
There are dozens of active and inactive fault lines in New Zealand. The most prominent of these would be the Great Alpine Fault, which rivens the South Island.
There are thousands of fault lines all over the world. A fault line is a surface trait of a fault. These are described as an intersection line found between the fault plain and the earth's surface.
these are the faults that occur in transmission line: 1. line to line fault 2. line to ground fault-this is the most common fault that occurs in tr. line(75%) 3. double line to ground fault 4. triple line to ground (or) 3 phase fault- this is the most serious and dangerous fault that occurs in transmission line.(but rarely occurs)

All over the world. Like, California, Japan, and others because they sit on fault lines where the plates push against each other to cause earthquakes. Wherever a fault line is that country will most likely have tons of earthquakes over the years.
California's seismic activity is the result of the many active faults it lies upon, most prominantly, the San Andreas Fault. One of the reasons that California has so many earthquakes is that the San Andreas fault has a "bend" that creates large amounts of friction as the plates slide next to each other.
