Abstract: For operating a gas hob having at least two gas burners which can be operated separately and which each have a nozzle, a dedicated gas valve for adjusting a gas supply to the gas burner is associated with each gas burner. The nozzle of a gas burner has an opening cross-section which is 10% to 30% larger than the opening cross-section which is required for the rated power of the gas burner. During normal operation of the gas burner, the associated gas valve is adjusted to a rated throughput. During operation of the gas burner under excess power with full utilization of the full opening cross-section of the nozzle, the gas valve is opened further and adjusted to an excess power throughput.

Abstract: An organizer (100) for fiber cable management comprises a generally planar base (105) having a splitter holding section (110), a slack and unterminated fiber storage section (120), and a splice and splice tray holding section (150). The splitter holding section (110) is configured to optionally hold one or more fiber splitters. The slack and unterminated fiber storage section includes a slack storage region (130) having a plurality of fiber routing structures (146a, 146b) to support and retain slack fiber and an unterminated fiber storage region having one or more spool type structures (142) to support and retain unterminated fiber separate from the slack fiber. The splice and splice tray holding section is configured to optionally hold one of a first fiber splice insert (160) and a splice tray holder (170) configured to engage one or more splice trays. A distribution box (200) for distributing optical fibers for communications includes a base, a cover, and the organizer described above.

Abstract: A telecommunications overvoltage protection magazine (10) permits in the mounting position direct mounting in a telecommunications rack-mounting system behind a junction zone (12) for cable conductors and electrical connection to the junction zone (12), the surge arresters being insertable in a mounting position from below, from above or partly from above and partly from below, more particularly alternatingly from above and below.

Abstract: A mounting tray (10) for mounting IDC junction modules to a mounting rail (46) in a telecommunications rack, the mounting tray comprising: (a) a tray (14) adapted to hold one or more IDC junction modules (b) at least one transverse positioning member (40) for positioning the tray in a transverse orientation with respect to the mounting rail (46), and attached thereto, (c) at least one detachable fastener (12) that provides detachable attachment of the mounting tray (10) to the mounting rail (46) through one or more fastening means (38, 32) configured to permit attachment to one or more complementary features (64, 66) on the mounting rail (46).

Abstract: A termination tool for terminating cable cores in telecommunications module contacts, comprises a handle, a jig for receiving the cores and stuffing them into a contact, and a trimmer (10) on said jig, wherein said trimmer (10) is at least double-acting, so that at least two cable cores can be trimmed to length in a single operation.

Abstract: A telecommunications backbone junction module (10) is configured in the form of a cable connector for mounting in a telecommunications rack-mounting system and comprises through-contact elements for joining, particularly prefabricated, conductors of a backbone cable (12) on the one hand, and, on the other, IDC contacts in a front portion in the mounting position for joining the patching cables (14).

Abstract: A terminal block assembly is provided containing a bus bar having a knife edge arranged to penetrate the insulation of an insulated conductor that is carried by a support member, whereby during the connection of the support member with the terminal block, the insulation is penetrated by the knife edge to electrically connect the conductor with the bus bar. In order to facilitate the connection of the support member to the terminal block, the support member and the terminal block are provided with openings that cooperate to define a long-arm pivotal leverage arrangement that provides an assembling tool with a mechanical advantage for assisting in the penetration of the insulation by the knife edge.

Abstract: An insulation displacement contact (10) comprises a contact spring (12) with two resilient contact shanks (20) that limit a contact slot (30), and a U-shaped force spring (14) formed as a separate component from the contact spring (12). The shanks (28) of the force spring (14) run largely perpendicular to regions of the contact shanks (20) and encompass same.

Abstract: A securing and contacting adapter. (2) for a connector block in telecommunication technology having a front-sided engaging means consists of an elastic, electrically conducting material and has a first contacting and securing section (10) as well as a second contacting and securing section (14). The first contacting and securing section (10) has a securing element (12) for producing a releasable connection with the connector block, the securing element (12) being arranged at a distance from the upper end of the first contacting and securing section (10). The second contacting and securing section (14) is provided with a securing element (20) to produce a releasable connection with a receiving arm of a carrier profile rail.
