Circuitry for fuse failure display for monitoring the trip status of a fuse is disclosed, wherein a light-emitting diode is provided in order to display the trip status of the fuse, which light-emitting diode is arranged in a current path parallel to the fuse. If the fuse is not tripped, the parallel current path has a high resistance in relation to the resistance across the fuse, such that the current across this current path is insufficient for operation of the light-emitting diode. If the fuse is tripped, this parallel current path has a low resistance in relation to the resistance across the fuse, such that the current across this current path is sufficient for operation of the light-emitting diode, wherein a current-limiting device for limiting the current across the light-emitting diode and a voltage-limiting device for limiting the voltage across the tripped fuse are also provided.
