A circuit includes: a first electrical interface including a first pin, a resistor module, an alternating current signal source, a voltage detection module, and a controller. One end of the resistor module is electrically connected to the first pin. The alternating current signal source is electrically connected to the other end of the resistor module, and configured to generate an alternating current detection signal. The voltage detection module is connected to the first pin, and configured to detect a maximum voltage value and a minimum voltage value that are on the first pin within a period of the alternating current detection signal. The controller is separately connected to the alternating current signal source and the voltage detection module, and configured to, when a difference between the maximum voltage value and the minimum voltage value is less than a first threshold, determine that water enters the first electrical interface.

A liquid cooling system can be installed to an information technology (IT) rack. The liquid cooling system can include a cooling assembly that has a cooling chassis and cold plates fixed at a bottom portion of the cooling chassis. Fluid lines are arranged in an interior of the cooling chassis to fluidly connect the cold plates to a supply line and a return line. The cooling chassis includes an outlet port that provides a path for a leaked fluid to flow out of the cooling chassis. The outlet port is inserted into an opening of a detection channel that has one or more fluid sensors within the detection channel. The floor of the cooling chassis may have a shape or other features to assist flow of leaked fluid towards the outlet port to assist in depositing the leaked fluid in the detection channel.

A liquid detection sensor includes a first electrode, an insulating layer and a second electrode. The insulating layer is located on the first electrode. The second electrode is located on the insulating layer. A surface of the second electrode is provided with a first hole passing through each of the second electrode and the insulating layer. The first electrode and the second electrode are configured to be rendered conductive through liquid collected in the first hole. Accordingly, the liquid detection sensor and a liquid detector are provided that can reduce malfunctions.

A building monitoring computer system for monitoring building integrity may be provided. Various types of sensors may be embedded throughout or within certain portions of different types of building or construction material making up the building, such as within roofing, foundation, or structural materials. The sensors may be in wireless communication with a home controller. The sensors may be water, moisture, temperature, vibration, or other types of sensors, and may detect unexpected or abnormal conditions within the home. The sensors and/or home controller may transmit alerts to a mobile device of the home owner associated with the unexpected condition, and/or that remedial actions may be required to repair the home or mitigate further damage to the home. The sensor data may also be communicated to an insurance provider remote server to facilitate the insurance provider communicating insurance-related recommendations, updating insurance policies, or preparing insurance claims for review for home owners.
