Abstract: A runout compensator is provided that angulates a face surface by adjusting two members whose mating surfaces have been machined to slant relative to the central axis of each member. A first member has a shaft over which slides the second member so that the mating surfaces of each member come into and are maintained in contact. Rotating the second member about the shaft of the first member varies the angulation of a face surface. Correctly adjusting the runout compensator, which is attached to a lathe, and a load plate assembly providing biasing to hold the workpiece between itself and the runout compensator, allows the workpiece to be firmly held in the angled position needed to compensate for the runout in the workpiece as the workpiece is turned upon a lathe.

Abstract: A network interface module for providing connection between a customer's equipment and the telephone company owned portion of the customer loop is provided with a miniaturized easily removable module which includes the overvoltage protection device and the circuitry necessary to provide a prescribed line test termination impedance having a particular characteristic signature to the telephone central office when a continuity test is made on a subscriber line.
