Linear actuators can be controlled and monitored by an Electronic Power Distribution System with no additional sensors or wiring. Laboratory and field test results are provided showing how common faults can be detected and annunciated, and potential faults can be detected before becoming hazardous. Results of these tests are extrapolated to other types of motors, such as pumps and fans.
