Abstract
An information handling system includes resistive short detection circuitry that measures a first amount of power provided by a power supply system, and measures a second amount of power drawn by components. The resistive short detection circuitry compares the first amount of power with the second amount of power. In response to first amount of power being greater than the second amount of power, the resistive short detection circuitry determines that a short exists within the information handling system.
