Abstract
Resistive faults are analyzed on a conductor in a telephone line by first charging the conductor to an initial voltage. The conductor is allowed to float for a finite amount of time, allowing some of the charge on the conductor to leak through any resistive fault. Then, the voltage of the conductor is measured and compared to the initial voltage. Loss of voltage indicates a resistive fault. This information can be used to provide an indication of the accuracy of a capacitance measurement and can be used to correct the capacitance measurement to account for the error due to the resistive fault.
