Abstract

Various systems and methods for non-destructive testing (NDT) devices are provided. In one embodiment, an NDT can include a tubular housing including a proximal end and a distal end. The tubular housing can include a head section arranged at the distal end, and a bendable articulation section secured to the head section and arranged proximal to the head section. A sensor can be arranged within the head section, and include a first output terminal having an output signal cable extending along the tubular housing to a control unit arranged at the proximal end of the tubular housing, and a second output terminal grounded within the tubular housing.
