Abstract

Disclosed is a modem line connection circuit for connecting with public telephone line, which has: a simulated inductance circuit composing a dry transformer; a current-limiting circuit which limits excess current to flow through the simulated inductance circuit; and an indicator circuit which detects the flow of excess current in response to the operation of the current-limiting circuit and indicates the detection of excess current. Also, the circuit has a switch which makes the operation of the modem line connection circuit stop when the current-limiting circuit operates.
