A system for housing a drone for locating a source in an electrical structure includes a plurality of drones capable of hovering in positions to form a virtual enclosure around an electrical structure and a server communicably coupled to the drones. The virtual enclosure is divided into a plurality of cells. The drone is configured to measure a plurality of time difference of arrival (TDOA) values from signals originating from the source; calculate a plurality of propagation times comprising a propagation time for a calibration signal that travels from a drone to each of the plurality of cells; and send the TDOA values and the propagation times to a server. The server is configured to receive the TDOA values and the propagation times from the plurality of drones; and determine a location of the source based on the plurality of TDOA values and the plurality of propagation times.
