Description Sital Technology have develop technology to detect wiring faults. Sital Technology develops and manufactures avionics databus products, including hardware and software. We have a patented technology of Passive Time Domain Reflectometer (pTDR) which detects wiring problems such as disconnections, short-circuits, and others. pTDR technology runs during normal system operation without disturbing the standard databus activity, so it can find intermittent wiring issues during flight.
I think that this technology may be of interest to the forum. And I will be happy to provide further information.
