Abstract
Degradation and failure of aircraft wiring insulation is of particular interest which could lead to smoke and fire due to arcing. With two recent major air accidents and hundreds of major incidents over the past twenty years, health monitoring and sustainment of wiring, particularly for aging aircraft is a major concern. The results of a technique based on TDR, using trains of successive pulses is presented in this paper for detection of partial damage to insulation in electrical wires and cables.
