Abstract
There are disclosed apparatus and methods for testing a live circuit powered from an alternating current (AC) voltage. A zero crossing detector detects zero crossings of the AC voltage. A spread spectrum time domain reflectometer (SSTDR) coupled to the zero crossing detector performs measurements of the live circuit, each measurement synchronized with a zero crossings of the AC voltage. A processor coupled to the SSTDR detects faults in the live circuit based on correlation data provided by the SSTDR.
