ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Elongate apparatus for detecting arid locating changes in variables such as temperature, pressure, and the presence or absence of water, gasolene or other fluids. The apparatus comprises first, second and third elongate electrical connection means, generally wires, at least one of which is in a wrapped configura- tion; preferably first and second wires are wrapped, particularly braided, around an insulated third wire. The first and second wires are insulated from each other until a detectable event takes place, at which time they become connected. With the aid of the third wire, the voltage drop down the second wire is measured, and from a knowledge of the resistance characteristics of the second wire, the location of the connection point is calculated.
