Abstract: A fuse holder adapter for use with knife-blade fuse clips used with standard 600 ampere fuses in which the adapter comprises first and second metallic plates mounted in facing, spaced relationship on an insulator plate. The first and second metallic plates have respective first and third sections which are adapted to receive fuse clips to form fuse holders of different length and further have respective second and fourth sections formed as knife-blades and extending beyond the insulator plate so as to be able to be receivable in the knife-blade fuse clips used with the standard 600 ampere fuses.
Abstract: An access and test apparatus for subscriber and central office cable pairs connected to associated socket pairs in a main frame in which the apparatus includes a body member and pairs of connecting terminals extending from the body member for receipt in the socket pairs and first and second switch means in the body member for selectively interconnecting the connecting terminals and, therefore, sockets and cable pairs to first and second access terminals, as well as to selectively provide short circuit and open circuit conditions to the connecting terminals and, hence, sockets and cable pairs.
Abstract: A circuit and method for enabling the automatic testing of trunks leading to automatic call distributors from a remote testing location is disclosed. In accordance with the invention, when the remote testing location wishes to test a trunk leading to an automatic call distributor, tones are generated which enable the remote testing location to be connected to a test line of the automatic call distributor rather than to an operator position.
