LINE BREAK DETECTION SYSTEM

A line break detection system for detecting a break in a conductor (1.004), the system including a first return signal generator (1.020) proximate a first end of a segment of the conductor, the first return signal generator being adapted to apply a first return signal to the conductor, the system in...

More Information
Summary:A line break detection system for detecting a break in a conductor (1.004), the system including a first return signal generator (1.020) proximate a first end of a segment of the conductor, the first return signal generator being adapted to apply a first return signal to the conductor, the system including a first return signal detector (1.016) proximate a second end of the segment of the line, the second end being upstream of the first end, the first detector being adapted to receive the first return signal from the line, wherein the first return signal generator ceases to generate the first return signal if the line is broken.
