ABSTRACT:
A telephone subscriber line is connected to a SLIC via contacts of an isolation relay. Line voltage on the line side of the relay contacts, and line current on the SLIC side of the relay contacts, are detected during opposite polarity half-cycles of an a.c. fault on the line, and the contacts are opened to protect the SLIC if the voltage and/or current is excessive. The interruption of current causes the line voltage to rise to maintain the protection for the duration of a fault.
