Fuse Monitor / AlarmIt came to me in a flash. A simple way to see if a fuse has blown without
removing it from its holder. Its not often you can design a circuit using just
two components, but with just one resistor and an LED this circuit provides
visual indication of when a fuse has blown.
LED 1 is normally not lit, being "short - circuited " by the
fuse, F1. Should the inevitable "big-bang" happen in your workshop then LED1
will illuminate and led you know all about it! Note that the LED will only
light under fault conditions, i.e. a short circuit or shunt on the load. In
this case the supply current is reduced to a safe level by R1.
