#97110 - quote from my previous post
Responding to: ???'s previous message

If there is no proper reference a short could assume any potential tip, ring, or something in between from the perspective of your selected input point so it is difficult to imposible to define the led states from this snippet

your reference must be defined and its relationship to this "tester" clearly shown before anyone can properly figure the correct led response for a given circuit condition.

Here in Canada You can not connect market even a tester for the phone system unless it is an approved device. Well you can but you do risk negative results. What is the value of a piece of test equipment that is not robust enough to survive under all anticipated line conditions.

If you make 10,000 pieces and may save a $1 on each that is a reasonable goal to strive for.
But on a one off tester that must work and that that costs $2 for parts and $100 in labour to make saving $1 on protection seems questionable economy.
