Abstract :
The practical implementation of a high voltage/low energy portable tool is discussed to address the need for intermittent fault diagnostic solutions. Recent results from aircraft testing are reported, safety validation is discussed and future system upgrades are addressed to support ease of use as a field diagnostic tool.
