Abstract
An electrical machine includes a first set of windings, a second set of windings and a power controller connected to the first set of windings by a first set of feeder cables. The power controller controls the current and/or voltage supplied to the first set of windings at a control frequency and generates a test signal to supply to the first set of windings. The test signal has one or more frequency components having a frequency that is significantly higher than the control frequency. The test signal in the first set of windings generates an electromagnetic field that induces a current or voltage in the second set of windings. The power controller includes a detector connected to the second set of windings by a second set of feeder cables. The detector measures the voltage and/or current response of the induced current or voltage.
