Abstract: An apparatus and method to detect and locate electrical faults in an insulated supply conductor sheathed in a conductive screen is disclosed. The apparatus is positioned along the supply conductor between a power supply and an electrical load. The conductive screen is coupled to an electrical ground via a first resistive element. A voltage on the conductive screen is sensed and compared to a threshold to determine whether a fault condition exists. The apparatus is configured to inject a voltage pulse to the conductive screen and detect a reflected pulse therefrom. The location of the fault condition is determined based on an elapsed time between the injection of the voltage pulse and the detection of the reflected pulse.
