There is described a method for localizing a leaking rod from a nuclear fuel assembly, in which for each rod in an assembly, the radio-activity in at least two discrete rod rows in which said rod lies is measured and a leaking rod is localized by sensing a lowering of the radio-activity in the tested rows where said rod lies relative to the radio-activity in an identical row of non-leaking rods. There is further described an equipment for the working of this method.
