MP0806 SPECIFICATION FOR PATENT APPLICATION Title "Electrical Monitoring Systems" ABSTRACT Electrical systems, especially elongate heating systems, include means for monitoring circuit continuity. The systems comprise a switching device, e.g. a thermo- stat, as well as a circuit breaker. When the switching device is on, a relatively high current passes through the circuit and when it is off, a small controlled residual current flows in the circuit, and a current- detecting device signals when a discontinuity causes the current to drop below the expected value for the residual current. Preferably the switching device is placed so that the heater is at a positive potential even when the switching device is off, and a ground fault indicator is used to compare the currents in the two legs of the circuit and to signal when a ground fault causes the currents to differ.
