OPTICAL FIBER BREAK DETECTOR Abstract of the Disclosure An apparatus for detecting a break in an optical fiber adapted for carrying optical energy such laser energy. The optical fiber has a core, a cladding concentric with and surrounding the core and a sheath concentric with and surrounding the cladding. A detector. is located within the sheath and has a portion thereof contiguous with the cladding. The detector is adapted to detect both a break in the portion contiguous to cladding as a result of a break in the fiber and a change in transmission of optical energy resulting from a break in the fiber without a concomitant break in the contiguous portion, and to provide a signal indicative of a break in the fiber.
