Abstract: A telephone line testing device for use with a PABX having a plurality of input lines. The testing device includes test circuitry, a first connecting means for connection to a telephone line of a telephone system, a second connecting means for connection to a desired input line of the PABX, a first switch means for connecting either the PABX input line or the test circuitry to the telephone line. The test circuitry includes a test signal generating means for generating a test signal, a ringing signal detection means for detecting the presence of a ringing signal on the telephone line, and a second switch means which is responsive to the ringing signal detection means for automatically supplying a test signal generated by the test signal generating means to the telephone system when the test circuitry is connected to the telephone line by the first switch means and a ringing signal is desired.
