Navy aircraft carriers have a problem detecting ground faults in the high voltage/high-current launch system wiring. This proposal provides a hardware and intelligent software solution for fault detection and isolation based on technology developed in prior DoD funding.
Benefit: We will develop the hardware and software for a handheld ground fault detection system that fills a critical need for the US Navy. This device would have immediate benefit for detecting wiring faults in many other commercial and military high voltage applications.
