Abstract
A system for determining a fault in a subsea blowout preventer (BOP) stack includes a first sensor and a second sensor adapted to measure one or more properties of a subsea operation. The system further includes a first power supply adapted to provide operational power to the first sensor and a second power supply adapted to provide operational power to the second sensor. The system also includes a first power failure indicator and isolator (PFII) associated with the first sensor and the first power supply, the first PFII measuring a first pair of waveforms to identify a first fault and a second PFII associated with the second sensor and the second power supply, the second PFII measuring a second pair of waveforms to identify a second fault.
