Certain embodiments of the invention may include systems and methods for determining electrical ground faults. According to an example embodiment of the invention, a method is provided determining ground leakage electrical faults. The method includes providing a voltage source (262) having a positive lead in communication with a first contact conductor (209) and a negative lead in communication with a circuit negative lead connection (211), wherein the first contact conductor (209) is connected to a ground (225) through a first resistor Rp (224), and wherein the circuit negative lead connection (211) is connected to the ground (225) through a second resistor Rn (226); monitoring a first voltage potential associated with the first contact conductor (209); and determining a condition associated with the first contact conductor (209), based at least in part on the monitored first voltage potential. |
