  • Method utilizing an automatic resettable circuit breaker for locating ground faults in a vehicle
    Patent number: 4104581
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for locating a grounded fault in an electrical circuit. An automatic resettable circuit breaker having two terminals is connected across a source of power and the circuit under test. The grounded fault condition causes the resettable circuit breaker to continually recycle in the presence of the grounded fault. An induction current measuring ammeter is movably positioned over the circuit under test to measure the varying current caused by the resettable circuit breaker. The actual location of the ground is determined by the immediate absence of a measured varying current.
