Abstract
A method for detecting electrical faults in an electrical circuit having transmission wires for power transmission includes determining whether a potential electrical fault condition exists along the transmission wires and confirming the potential electrical fault is an actual electrical fault. If the potential electrical fault is confirmed as an actual electrical fault, the method may disable the electrical circuit.
