A system and method for determining leakage in a fluid supply line assembly are provided. The system includes a source of pressurized fluid, a pressurized fluid load, and a fluid supply line coupled to the source and the load. The leak detection system also includes a source isolation valve configured to control a flow of fluid into the fluid supply line from the source, a load isolation valve configured to control a flow of fluid from the fluid supply line to the pressurized fluid load, and a processor communicatively coupled to a memory device. The memory device includes instructions that when executed by the processor, cause the processor to close the load isolation valve and open the source isolation valve to supply pressurized fluid to the fluid supply line, and after a predetermined interval, determine a leakage of pressurized fluid from the fluid supply line.
