ABSTRACT:
A MIS diode sensor having a Pd/Cu alloy electrode is sensitive to and can detect CO, H.sub.2, C.sub.2 H.sub.2 and C.sub.2 H.sub.4. An array of MIS diode sensors having varying electrode compositions can indicate a fault in an electrical transformer by the detection of at least one of the key fault gases CO, H.sub.2, C.sub.2 H.sub.2 and C.sub.2 H.sub.4.
