SHORT CIRCUIT LOCATOR APPARATUS INCLUDING A PLURALITY OF INTERMITTENTLY OPERATED CIRCUIT BREAKERS

摘要

A method and apparatus for locating short circuits, primarily in a vehicle, which comprises of placing a pair of test leads across the defective fuse in a shorted circuit, the test leads being connected to a plurality of circuit breakers through a selector switch for selecting one of the circuit breakers. A relay in parallel with the selected circuit breaker operates a switch which controls a light and tone generator, such that when the circuit breaker is placed across the fuse terminals of a shorted circuit, an audible and visual signal will be generated by the tone generator and light.
