A ceramic armor system with built-in conductive circuit attached to a ceramic component. The conductive circuit can be accessed by a user at contacts provided in the system. The circuit is arranged so that damage such as cracks that occurs within the ceramic component can propagate into the conductive material forming the circuit and thereby cause a rupture in the conductive circuit. An electrical probe such as an ohmmeter is used to measure the conductive circuit resistance that is then checked against an expected value. The results are used to determine if the ceramic armor component is in operable condition.

L'invention concerne un système de blindage en céramique qui comprend un circuit conducteur intégré fixé à la pièce de céramique. L'utilisateur peut accéder au circuit conducteur par des contacts situés sur le système. Le circuit est conçu de sorte que les détériorations telles que les fissures qui se produisent dans la pièce de céramique puissent se propager au matériau conducteur formant le circuit, et causer ainsi une rupture du circuit conducteur. Une sonde électrique, telle qu'un ohmmètre, est utilisée pour mesurer la résistance du circuit conducteur, laquelle est ensuite vérifiée et comparée à la valeur prévue. Les résultats obtenus sont utilisés pour déterminer si la pièce de blindage en céramique est en état de fonctionner.
