System for Electrical Apparatus Testing

A method of quantifying electric machine circuitry anomalies comprising the steps of:

• accessing at least a portion of an electric machine power circuit characterizeable as having a supply path and a load path;
• sensing at least one electrical effect at a sense location between said supply path and said load path;
• measuring a supply path voltage effect at said sense location;
• measuring a supply path current effect at said sense location;
• quantitatively ascertaining the existence of a supply path anomaly condition from said steps of measuring a supply path voltage effect and measuring a supply path current effect at said sense location.

A method of testing electric machine circuitry comprising the steps of:

• accessing at least a portion of an electric machine power circuit characterizeable as having a supply path and a load path;
• experiencing a load change condition within said load path;
• load change condition sensing at least one electrical effect from said load change condition at a sense location between said supply path and said load path;
• determining at least one electrical parameter at said sense location;
• and
• ascertaining if a supply path anomaly condition exists from said step of determining at least one electrical parameter at said sense location.

A method of identifying an incipient fault electric machine circuitry anomaly comprising the steps of:

• accessing at least a portion of an electric machine power circuit characterizeable as having a supply path and a load path;
• sensing at least one electrical effect at a sense location between said supply path and said load path;
• determining at least one electrical parameter at said sense location;
• and
• ascertaining if an incipient fault supply path anomaly condition exists from said step of determining at least one electrical parameter at said sense location.
