  A practical guide to the installation of telephone wiring, from the simple single extension socket to the Private Automatic Branch Exchange (PABX). First the functioning of the telephone system, with an emphasis on the local loop connecting the subscriber and the local exchange, is described. Then the various sockets, connection devices and cables are shown. The chapter on installation techniques describes how to apply these components. Methods are suggested for implementing various schemes for single- and multiple-line installations, from planning stage to commissioning. The next chapter deals with fault-finding and fault prevention, including fault-finding tables. Functional descriptions of all common types of apparatus designed to be connected to the telephone system are described, including simple telephones, fax machines and modems. The text is supported by a glossary of technical terms, abbreviations and acronyms relevant to the telephone industry.
