Abstract
A method and system of determining the location of an earth fault within a loop of devices is disclosed. Upon the detection of an earth fault within the loop comprising a plurality of devices, a first device within the loop is isolated along with a second device. While the first device and the second device are isolated, it is determined if the earth fault still exists. If the earth fault no longer exists, then determine that the earth fault is located between the first device and the second device. This can be iterated through each adjacent pair of devices in the loop to localize the earth fault between the devices.
