Abstract
The present invention relates to a line fault monitor for detecting a short circuit in a terminal-side loop line and disconnecting the short-circuit portion from a power supply, so that the position of the short circuit can easily be specified. The line fault monitor includes at least one of a mid-point line monitoring device and a beginning/end line monitoring device. The mid-point line monitoring device has a first fault indicator lamp for indicating a fault in a line connected to one terminal, and a second fault indicator lamp for indicating a fault in a line connected to the other terminal. The beginning/end line monitoring device in the side of a receiver has a first fault indicator lamp for indicating a fault in a line connected to a beginning terminal, a second fault indicator lamp for indicating a fault in a line connected to an end terminal, and a representative fault indicator lamp for representatively indicating a fault in any one of the lines connected to the beginning and the end terminals.
