Abstract
Abstract An abnormality detecting system includes equipment for detecting an abnormality which occurs therein and for transmitting an abnormal signal, and an abnormal signal processing unit for analyzing the abnormal signal received from the electric equipment. The abnormal signal processing unit is formed in a portable shape, and receives an abnormal signal from the electric equipment in a non-contact manner by means of radiowaves or infrared rays. The abnormal signal processing unit stores beforehand data relating to abnormalities and data corresponding to the received abnormal signal can be extracted and displayed. Further, the abnormal signal processing unit can transmit the received abnormal signal to an external component by means of radiowaves or infrared rays.
