Systems and Methods for Detecting Shorts in Electrical Distribution Systems

摘要

Systems and methods for detecting a short in an electrical distribution system are disclosed. In one embodiment, a determination is made as to whether a short condition is satisfied based on a change in a voltage in a wire harness coupled to a first side of a switch. The determination of whether a short exists is made in response to determining whether the short condition has been satisfied for at least a threshold time. The threshold time is dependent on a change in a voltage of the wire harness coupled to a second side of the switch.
