Zusammenfassung:	A method of detecting a fault in a power distribution system is provided. The method comprises: providing a power source; providing a load to be powered by the power source; providing a connection from the power source to the load; placing a current source on the connection from the power source to the load; detecting a change in a voltage on the connection indicative of a change of an impedance in the power distribution system; and determining a fault is present within the power distribution system based on the detected change in the voltage on the connection.
