The PHIL system Steurer developed allows power equipment to be tested to see how it responds to issues such as power surge or overload in a controlled environment. This model led CAPS to become the first university test site accredited by the U.S. Navy to perform high-powered simulations as the center develops next-generation shipboard power technology.
