Short and open circuit detection

I want to design an analog circuit to help in the detection of both open and short circuits... any ideas anyone?

You need to post more info about the application.

Otherwise you'll get suggestions for everything from detecting s/c & o/c in kV AC supplies through Christmas light strings to femtoampere resistance bridges.

What voltage?

What current?

What source and load impedances?

What frequency signals?

How fast a response time?

What output do you want from it?

Could be as simple as a couple of LEDs or it could be a page of dense circuitry.
