A monitor for an electrical control system has a pulse detection circuit configured to detect a voltage waveform output to an electrified element. The monitor also has a monitor processor. The monitor processor receives the voltage waveform from the pulse detection circuit, measures one or more parameters of the voltage waveform, receives additional information associated with the voltage waveform, compares the one or more parameters to the additional information, and performs an analysis process based on the comparison of the voltage waveform and the additional information.
