Leak detection and location system and method
The present invention is a method and system for detecting and locating leaks in a roofing membrane. The mean net voltage from an emitting electrode activated by and connected to the positive side of a power supply, when a conductive mesh disposed beneath the membrane is connected to the negative side of the power supply, is compared with the mean reference voltage from the emitting electrode when a reference electrode is connected to the negative side of the power supply in place of the conductive mesh. If the mean net voltage is greater than or equal to the mean reference voltage, then a leak is indicated.
