Industrial electromagnetic checkout of armored wiring
Abstract
A method for testing whether armored wiring can withstand EMP's caused by nuclear explosions is described. The wires are checked in their production cases, using a strip line antenna as pulse source. Only one measurement per connector is made, with the connector conductors in parallel. The method is quick, repeatable, and does not damage the wiring.
