Abstract
When one signal line group and another signal line group, which differs from the one signal line group in length, are arranged adjacent to each other, a disconnection due to static electricity which is caused by a spark generated between a signal line of the one signal line group and a signal line of the other signal line group can be prevented. For this purpose, the image signal line is specifically configured such that, on a substrate, a first signal line group in which a plurality of first signal lines are arranged in parallel and a second signal line group in which a plurality of second signal lines are arranged in parallel in a region arranged adjacent to the first signal line group are formed, and dummy lines are arranged between the first signal line group and the second signal line group.
