These coils are conveniently mounted on the line side of cabinet BE—79 to permit cross connection and cabling so that any repeating coil can be connected (between the central office side of the protectors and the switchboard cable terminals) into any incoming line as required to establish simplex or phantom circuits. (See par. 266.) Figure 2 shows repeating coils C-161 in place.
(2) Equipment.—Cabinet BE-79 is equipped as follows:
(a) Line side.—Protectors (protector blocks and heat coils) in two vertical verticals with 40 pairs per vertical. Total 80 pairs.
* * * * * * *
(-ton, 6x6, cargo.
2. Lay-out of equipment.—a. The arrangement of the equipment in Shelter HO-27-(&) (or HO-17-(&)) for one or two switchboards and main frames is shown in figures 38 and 39, respectively.
b. Equipment which is fastened down is indicated by solid outlines; equipment not fastened down is indicated by dotted outlines. ' c. Unfastened equipment must be removed from the shelter before the set is put into operation.
1 Shelters HO—17—(&) and HO—27—(&) are identical, except that shielding is provided in tho HO—17—(&) to reduce interference when the shelter is used to house a radio installation. Whenever available, Shelter HO-27-(&) should be used for the Telephone Central Office Set TC-2.

d. Cording for the electrical connections is shown as heavy solid lines. The cording is numbered and cross-referenced in the table at the bottom of the figure. The table also lists the description of the cording and its terminal points.
e. Dimensions are given for preferred locations of fastened equipment and for their points of connection to the shelter.
3. Fastening’.—The equipment may be fastened to the shelter by lag screws, toggle bolts, or bolts and nuts. The lag screws are easiest to install and remove. Lag screws, bolts, or toggle bolts should have a body dimension of %6 or % inch.
4. Installation.—a. Fastened equipment.—The following procedure is used for fastening equipment to the shelter by either lag screws, bolts and nuts, or toggle bolts:
(1) Use of lag screws (preferred means).— (a) Drill close-fitting clearance holes in the bases of the equipment to be fastened down in the locations shown in figure 38 or 39. Use a brace and auger bit (wood) or a twist drill.
(Z>) Locate the equipment to be fastened down in the positions indicated in figure 38 or 39.
(c) Drill lead holes in the shelter floor, using the clearance holes previously drilled in the bases of the equipment as a guide. Use a hand drill or electric drill with a %6-inch twist drill for %6-inch lag screws, or a ^-inch twist drill for %-inch lag screws.
(d) Install flat washers and lockwashers under the lag screw heads to provide additional bearing area and to prevent loosening. A sufficient number of spacing washers should be installed under the screw heads when required, so that the lag screws will project approximately % to % inch through the shelter floor. Insert the lag screws in the clearance holes in the equipment and screw into the lead holes in the shelter floor with a wrench. Do not drive lag screws with a hammer.
(2) Use of bolts and nuts.— (a) Arrange the equipment in the shelter in accordance with the dimensions shown in figure 38 or 39.
(b) Elevate the shelter or otherwise provide working space beneath the floor of the shelter. Take all necessary precautions to permit personnel to work beneath the shelter in safety.
(c) After elevating the shelter, recheck the location of the equipment to be certain that it has not moved. Relocate the equipment if necessary.

(d) Drill bolt clearance holes in the locations specified in figure 38 or 39. Use a twist drill for making these holes.
(e) Install sufficient flat washers under the bolt heads so that the bolts will not project below the bottom of the shelter skids; then insert the bolts in the clearance holes. Install flat washers, lock washers, and nuts. Tighten the nuts, using wrenches on both the nuts and the bolt heads.
(/) Lower the shelter to the ground or relocate it in the body of the truck.
(3) Use of toggle bolts.—(a) Arrange the equipment to be fastened in accordance with the dimensions shown in figure 38 or 39.
(6) Use a twist drill to drill clearance holes in the equipment and floor of the shelter, in the locations shown in figure 38 or 39.
(c) Insert the toggle bolts in the clearance holes. Install flat washers and lockwashers under the nuts and tighten the nuts with a wrench.
b. Cording.—(1) Install the cording in the locations shown in figure 38 or 39.
(2) Cut a hole in the rear-end wall of the shelter at the location shown in figure 38 or 39 to accommodate Cords CD-393 and CD-409. The dimensions of the hole should be the minimum size required for the cords.
(3) Cut a hole of the minimum size required in the locations shown in figures 38 or 39 to accommodate ground Cord CO-258.
(4) To make the shelter weatherproof and to keep light in, place canvas squares over the cord holes in the shelter rear-end wall. Fasten the squares by their top edges to the outside of the shelter wall.
e. Communication lines.—(1) Cut the holes for the communication lines in the shelter side wall in the locations shown in figure 38 or 39. Make the holes 3 inches in diameter and locate them above troop-seat height.
(2) Install a square of canvas over the communication-line hole at the top edge on the outside of the shelter wall to provide weatherproofing and lightproofing.
(3) At an operating point, bring the communication wires and cables through the hole and terminate them directly on the main distributing-frame terminal blocks.

d. Cabinet BE-70-(<&) (wire chiefs test set).—(1) When only-one main distributing frame is included in the installation, construct a wooden shelf of the required size and install Cabinet BE—70—(&) on the shelter wall adjacent to Cabinet BE-79-(&). When two Cabinets BE-79 are included in the installation, shape two pieces of strap iron to form a cradle for suspending the Cabinet BE-70-(&) between the two main distributing frames at the operating point.
(2) When not in use, keep the Cabinet BE-70-(&) in Case CS-57 to protect against damage. If Case CS-57 interferes with the operation or maintenance of the central offices at operating points, it may be removed from the shelter.
e. Unfastened equipment.—When only one switchboard and main distributing frame is included in Telephone Central Office Set TC-2, locate the unfastened components in Shelter HO-17-(&) or HO-27- (&), as shown by the dotted outlines in figure 38. If two switchboards and main distributing frames are included in Telephone Central Office Set TC-2, a trailer, 1-ton, two-wheel, cargo, is required for the unfastened components. These components are located in the trailer in the positions shown in figure 40.
5. Material list.—The material required for mounting Telephone Central Office Set TC-2 in Shelter HO-17-(&) or HO-27-(&) is given in the following table. (Equivalent bolts and toggle bolts may be used (if available) instead of the lag screws listed.)

TM 11-340
5 SIGNAL CORPS
5. Switchboard operation.—The operation of the switchboard is characteristic of comparable commercial practice.
a. Incoming calls.—A drop signal indicates a call on a magneto line. A line lamp (located below the line jack) indicates a call on a common-battery line or trunk.
b. Answering calls.—To answer a call, insert the answering (back) plug in the jack associated with the signal, and operate the TALK-RING key (in front of, and in line with the plug being used) to the locking TALK position (away from the operator) to connect the operator to the circuit.
c. Outgoing calls.— (1) Calls to station line.—To call a station, insert the calling (front) plug in the desired party’s line jack and operate the TALK-RING key to the non-locking RING position (toward the operator).
(2) Trunk calls to dial exchange.—To connect a telephone to a dial exchange for the purpose of making an outgoing call, proceed as follows: Insert the calling (front) cord plug in the LINE jack of the dial trunk. Wait for dial tone. When dial tone is heard, plug the dial cord plug into the DIAL jack and dial the desired number. Remove the dial cord plug at once and listen for the ringing tone.
(3) Trunk calls to common-battery manual exchange..—Connect the calling (front) cord plug to the manual trunk jack. The act of inserting the plug into the manual trunk jack signals the distant manual operator.
d. Supervision.— (1) Common-battery circuits.—Supervision on common-battery circuits is provided by a double row of lamp signals located on the keyshelf between the row of keys and the plugs. The lamp signals in the front row are associated with the front cords, and the lamps in the back row are associated with the back cords. To assist in identification of corresponding cords and lamps, the colors of the various lamp caps are the same color as their associated cords, alternate red, white, and green. Double supervision is thus provided. A lighted supervisory lamp indicates that either the calling or called party (depending on which lamp is lighted) has not answered or has disconnected. Intermittent up and down movement of the telephone receiver switchhook on a commonbattery circuit causes the cord supervisory lamp to flash. Upon receiving such a flashing signal, the operator challenges on the line by operating the TALK key associated with the flashing lamp, and
14
TM 11-340
TELEPHONE CENTRAL OFFICE SET TC-2 5
requests the wishes of the telephone user. Care must be used in supervising trunk calls to or from a manual common-battery exchange and in disconnecting promptly, since the operator at that exchange normally depends upon receiving a disconnect signal from the trunk to switchboard BD-89-A before completing disconnection in the manual central office.
(2) Magneto circuits.—Each magneto circuit supervisory lamp is located on the face of the board directly above the associated plugs. Ring-off or recall (the signal sent to the operator when either party operates his ringing generator after completion of a call) is indicated by a lighted lamp which remains lighted only during the ringing period. Upon observing a lighted recall lamp, the operator challenges on the line before taking down the cords to determine whether the signal means disconnect or recall.
e. Grouping key.—By operating the grouping key (engraved GR) on the keyshelf, the cords of this switchboard may be used by an operator at an adjacent switchboard during periods of light traffic, when it is not necessary that this switchboard position be attended.
/. Night alarm key.—The night alarm circuit may be disconnected by operating the night alarm key (engraved NA) on the face of the switchboard to the OFF position. Operate the night alarm release key (engraved NA RLS) on the keyshelf after each actuation of the night alarm circuit caused by the lighting of a commonbattery line lamp, in order to release the alarm and prepare the circuit for the next signal.
g. Monitoring key.—To monitor (listen) on a circuit, first operate the monitoring key (engraved MON), and then operate the TALK key associated with the cord circuit used. The operator cannot talk on the line being monitored but can listen in to determine whether or not the line is in use. The monitoring key connects the operator’s receiver across the line without introducing any perceptible loss in transmission.
h. Conference circuit.—The conference circuit is used to connect a number of lines together as follows: Insert an answering (rear) cord plug in the jack associated with the telephone of the person originating the conference. Then insert the associated calling (front) cord plug in a conference-circuit jack. The conference is completed by inserting the answering cord plugs in other jacks of the conference circuit and calling the desired telephones with the respective calling cords. Patching cords may also be used in conference connections under certain conditions (see par. 18b).

6. Rectifier RA-36-A, B, or C.—a. Installation.—Care should be exercised when removing rectifier RA-36-A, B, or C from case CS-73, to avoid damaging the equipment and meters. Mount the rectifier on frame FM-30 and fasten it securely. Before making any electrical connections, be sure that the a-c circuit to which the rectifier is to be connected agrees with the voltage and frequency stamped on the name plate. If there is any doubt about the voltage and frequency of a commercial source of a-c power, consult the local power company for information. Connect the movable primary lead (fig. 4) to the voltage tap, on the primary terminal board, that is nearest the value of the actual line voltage. Install the two rectifier tubes, if these have been packed separately, and attach the connecting leads with clips to the wires at the top of the tubes. The two rectifier tubes must be firmly screwed into their respective sockets.
b. Connections.—(1) Before connection is made to the storage ' batteries, turn the control switch to the OFF position and remove all four adjustment plugs, in order to prevent damage to the rectifier in case the two leads to the battery should accidentally become shorted prior to actual connection to the battery, and to avoid accidentally overloading the rectifier when the batteries are first connected.
(2) The two negative ( —) leads have been connected together and wired through a cable to power panel BD-98. This cable is part of rectifier RA-36-A, B, or C.
(3) The positive ( + ) lead has been wired through a reactance, then through the cable to power panel BD-98. The reactance is used as a noise filter to prevent electrical noise from the rectifier from reaching the storage battery, and thence into the talking circuits.
c. Operation.— (1) In order to get the most efficient operation from the rectifier, place the coarse adjustment plugs in correspondingly numbered holes on the right and left control panels (fig. 4). Likewise place the fine adjustment plugs in correspondingly designated holes, LOW, MEDIUM, or HIGH.
(2) Initial settings of the coarse and fine plugs, when charging two batteries BB-46 in series, are as follows:
Coarse adjustment plugs in hole 4;
Fine adjustment .p^ugs in hole marked LOW.
Turn the control switch to the ON position. The charging rate will be the sum of the two ammeter readings. If the charging rate is not
16
TM 11-340
TELEPHONE CENTRAL OFFICE SET TC-2 6-7
high enough, turn the control switch to the OFF position and move both fine adjustment plugs to the MEDIUM position. Turn the rectifier on again. If the charging rate is still too low, the same procedure should be fol owed, and the fine adjustment plugs moved to the HIGH position. If still unable to obtain a charging rate as high as desired, again turn off the control switch and move the coarse adjustment plugs to the next higher numbered hole and the fine adjustment plugs to the LOW position and proceed as before. If the charging rate is too high, follow the reverse procedure, by moving the coarse adjustment plugs to the next lower numbered hole, and the fine adjustment plugs to the HIGH position. The fine adjustment plugs are then moved to the MEDIUM or LOW position as required.
CciuHon.—Always turn the control switch to the OFF position before making anv adjustment to the rectifier, otherwise the tubes may be severely damaged.
(3) Charging rate.—Reference should be made to TM 11-430 for the proper charging rate for the various types of storage batteries encountered in the field. Other information relating to the care and use of storage batteries may be found in the same reference.
7. Cabinet BE-70-B.—The cabinet BE-70-B, wire chief’s testing cabinet, may be mounted in anv convenient location, either adjacent to the switchboard, or in the terminal room near the distributing frame. When the testing cabinet is located near the switchboard, connection may be made to the line to be tested by reaching across the face of the switchboard with the test cord from cabinet BE-70-B. When the testing cabinet is located near the main distributing frame, connections to the line to be tested may be made with a test shoe. The T, R, and S test cord terminals in cabinet BE-70-B may also be connected to the corresponding terminals of an outgoing line circuit, in order to provide means of testing lines from the switchboard, even though the testing cabinet may be located at some distance from the switchboard. Connection between the outgoing line circuit jack and the line jack of the circuit to be tested is made at the switchboard by means of a patching cord. The outgoing line circuit must be of the type that has no series or bridged line equipment, such as is shown in figure 10. Details of installation and method of operation of cabinet BE-7Q-B are covered in TM 11-345.

equipment. The line binding post panel is mounted on the left-hand side of the switchboard, as viewed from the rear of the switchboard. The binding post panel may be unfastened from the supporting framework to provide access to the wiring side of the panel and to other apparatus. The binding post panel contains 150 binding posts in three vertical rows of 50 binding posts each. These binding posts are arranged to screw down on the spade-terminal strips attached to the cable which connects to cabinet BE-79. The binding post screws should be tightened only by means of a screw driver. The purpose of the binding post panel is to provide rapid means of connecting the line circuits to cabinet BE-79.
b. Tip, ring, and sleeve.—In subsequent discussions, frequent reference is made to the terms “tip,” “ring,” and “sleeve.” This method of designating the three conductors (two line wires and one control wire) is derived from the plug used on a manual switchboard. One of the cord conductors is connected to the tip of the plug, a second conductor is connected to the ring of the plug, and the third conductor (control wire) is connected to the sleeve of the plug. This method of distinguishing between the various cord conductors has been applied to the line circuit. The tip of the plug makes contact with the short spring of the jack. This jack spring is designated as the tip spring, and the side of the line connected to the tip spring is designated as the tip side of the line, or tip conductor (fig. 7). The ring of the plug makes contact with a longer jack spring. This longer jack spring is designated the ring spring,

and the side of the line connected to the ring spring is known as the ring side of the line, or ring conductor. The sleeve of the plug makes contact with the sleeve of the jack. The control wire connected to the sleeve of the jack is designated as the sleeve wire, and is used only to assist in controlling the supervisory relays in the cord circuit.

c. Circuits.—The various circuits are designed for use in a 24-volt non-multiple switchboard. The relay adjustment data are given in paragraph 42. Detailed description of the various circuits appears in the following paragraphs 9 to 24 inclusive.
9. Magneto line circuit (fig. 8).—This circuit is for use with equipment that uses 16- to 20-cycle ringing current for signaling. Since direct current is not applied to the line through this circuit, it cannot be used with telephones or circuits which require an external source of transmitter current (common-battery telephones), or for telephones or circuits which require direct current for supervisory purposes. The application of ringing current from the line to the circuit causes the drop to fall. When a plug is inserted into the jack, the drop is mechanically restored and the winding of the drop is disconnected from the line at the cut-off contacts in the jack. Contacts are provided on the drop to supply ground to a night alarm circuit which provides, when desired, an audible signal when a drop falls. (See par. 20.) The magneto line circuit may be connected to the following types of equipment or circuits:
a. Signal Corps type local-battery (magneto) telephones such as telephone EE-3, EE-4, EE-5, EE-8, and EE-8-A.
b. Commercial type magneto telephones.

common-battery switchboards, switchboards BD-74 and BD-78. For two-way service connect this circuit to a circuit in the distant switchboard which is equipped with a drop or ring-down relay. For incoming service only at switchboard BD-89-A, connect this circuit to a jack circuit (such as shown in fig. 10) at the distant switchboard. This latter connection may also apply to interposition trunks when three or more switchboards BD-89-A, B, or C, are installed as one exchange.
10. Common-battery line circuit (fig. 9).—This circuit is for use with telephones and circuits that require an external source of transmitter current and which signal switchboard BD-89-A by closing a d-c path.
a. Connecting circuits.—The common-battery line circuit may be connected to the following types of equipment or circuits:
(1) Telephones EE-8 and EE-8-A (with screw switch turned to CB).
(2) Commercial common-battery telephones.
(3) Trunk circuits that are arranged at the distant switchboard for incoming a-c ringing signals and outgoing d-c signals.
b. Working limits.— (1) Maximum external circuit loop resistance, 300 ohms.
(2) Minimum insulation resistance, 10,000 ohms.
The maximum external circuit loop resistance includes the resistance of the conductors from the switchboard to the telephone, plus the internal resistance of that portion of the telephone circuit through which the line current flows.

when the trunk to the dial central office is of such length that auxiliary long-trunk equipment is required at the dial central office. These auxiliary long-trunk circuits used at the dial central office are usually not designed to furnish reverse battery for supervisory purposes; consequently when such equipment is used on a dial trunk from switchboard BD-89-A, no supervision will be indicated by the cord lamp associated with the cord connected to the trunk jack. If it is desired that the supervisory lamp remain unlighted at all times rather than lighted, it is only necessary to reverse the trunk line connections at the terminals in cabinet BE-79. Should supervision of the above type be encountered and it is definitely known that there is no auxiliary long-trunk equipment in the dial central office, it is an indication of a trouble condition existing in some portion of the circuit.
14. Trunk circuit, two-way to manual common-battery telephone central office.—Figure 13 shows the trunk circuit used to provide two-way service between switchboard BD-89-A and a common-battery manual exchange. This circuit should be connected to a common-battery manual line circuit equipped with a line relay of approximately 2,000 ohms resistance at the distant switchboard. (This precludes connection to the common-battery line circuit of telephone central office set TC-1 if correct supervision is desired.) It may be connected in place of, or bridged across, any manual telephone which is connected to a common-battery manual switchboard.
a. Working limits.—The working limits of the manual commonbattery central office will usually be controlling.
(1) Maximum external loop resistance, 750 ohms.
(2) Minimum insulation resistance, 10.000 ohms.
b. Functions.—(1) Provides for a ring-down signal and lights a lamp to signal the operator on incoming calls from the central office.
(2) Extinguishes the signal lamp and closes a metallic bridge, over the trunk to cut off (trip) the ringing current and provide for supervision when the operator answers.
(3) Extends supervision from the loop to the cord circuit when the central office disconnects.
(4) Opens the loop to the central office and prepares the circuit for an incoming call when the operator disconnects.
(5) Closes the loop to signal the central office when the operator seizes the trunk.

Detailed description of incoming calls.—(1) On incoming calls, relay C operates from ringing current applied at the central office, locks itself to ground at a spring of relay A, lights the ANS lamp, and connects ground to the NA lead to provide for an audible signal. When the operator plugs into the ANS jack, relay A operates through the ground made at the jack. This opens the locking circuit to relay C, which releases, extinguishing the ANS lamp, and removing ground from the NA lead. Relay A also connects the winding of relay B in series with the line side of the repeating coil across the trunk to give answer supervision to the central office. Relay B operates at this time and connects a 500-ohm resistor R1 in a loop to the cord circuit, causing the A relay in the cord circuit to operate and extinguish the cord-supervisory lamp in switchboard BD-89-A. Relay B operates in series with the battery-supply apparatus in the central office cord circuit, and releases in series with the line relay at the central office. For this purpose the resistances of the cord-circuit battery-supply apparatus and the line relay at the central office should be approximately 200 ohms and 2,000 ohms respectively. The value of 200 ohms resistance of the cord-circuit battery-supply apparatus is an average value. In actual practice the resistance of the cord-circuit battery-supply apparatus may vary considerably from the average value of 200 ohms, and is dependent upon the type of switchboard, and the service for which it is designed. The resistance of line relays may also vary somewhat from the average value of 2,000 ohms, stated above. Probably the most extreme case that will be encountered in actual practice will be on trunk circuits of such length that an auxiliary long-trunk circuit is required at the commercial central office end of the circuit. In such cases the resistance in series with the batterysupply apparatus, connected to the central office end of the trunk circuit may be as low as 125 ohms, instead of the 2,000-ohm line relay and 200-ohm (average) cord circuit. The trunk circuit of switchboard BD-89-A will still function properly under such conditions except that disconnect supervision will not be received and it will be necessary to depend upon supervision indicated by the cord connected to the local station.
(2) When the central office disconnects, the line relay at the central office is connected to the line, and the resistance in the
30
TM 11-340
TELEPHONE CENTRAL OFFICE SET TC-2 14-15
circuit to relay B is increased. Relay B releases and the cord supervisory lamp lights through the release of relay A in the cord circuit.
(3) When the plug is removed from the ANS jack, relay A releases and disconnects the winding of relay B from the trunk, thus opening the holding bridge and extending disconnect supervision to the central office.
d. Detailed description of outgoing calls.—(1) On outgoing calls when a plug is inserted in the trunk ANS jack, relay A operates and closes a metallic bridge across the trunk through the line side of the repeating coil and the winding of relay B in series. The line relay at the central office is in series with relay B and operates to signal the central office operator. Relay B does not operate at this time, and the loop to the cord circuit remains open, allowing the cord-circuit supervisory lamp to light. When the central office answers, the resistance in the circuit to relay B is decreased, causing relay B to operate, connecting a 500-ohm resistor in a loop to the cord circuit which extinguishes the cord-supervisory lamp through the operation of the cord circuit A relay.
(2) When the central office disconnects, the action is the same as described in subparagraph 14c (2), preceding.
(3) When the switchboard BD-89-A operator disconnects by removing the plug from the ANS jack, relay A releases and disconnects the winding of relay B from the trunk, thus opening the holding bridge and extending disconnect supervision to the central office.
e. An exception to the above operation will be encountered on trunk circuits of such length that an auxiliary long-trunk circuit is required at the central office. In such cases there is no change in resistance in the central office equipment when the central office operator disconnects. Therefore, the operator at switchboard BD-89-A must depend upon supervision from the answering-cord supervisory lamp on outgoing trunk calls and upon supervision from the calling-cord supervisory lamp on incoming calls. This condition will, in all probability, be encountered rather infrequently in actual practice.
15. Universal cord circuit (fig. 14).—This cord circuit is of the universal type; that is, it provides for connection between two common-battery lines, between two magneto lines, between a common-battery line and a magneto line, and between a magneto line and a common-battery line. Supervision on common-battery lines is
31
TM 11-340
15 SIGNAL CORPS
indicated by cord supervisory lamps located on the keyshelf between the keys and plugs. Recall and disconnect signals on magneto lines are indicated by lamp signals located in the face of the switchboard below the magneto line signals (drops).
a. Working limits.— (1) Common-battery line circuits.— (a) Maximum external circuit loop resistance; for supervision, 1,200 ohms; for transmitter battery supply, 700 ohms.
(b) Minimum insulation resistance 5,000 ohms.
(2) Magneto line circuits, using telephone EE-8 or EE-8-A.— (a) Maximum external loop resistance, 15,000 ohms; minimum line insulation resistance, 30,000 ohms, or
(b) Maximum external loop, 7,000 ohms; minimum line insulation resistance, 1,000 ohms.
(3) Dial and manual trunk circuits.—When connected to these circuits, no cord-circuit working limits apply, since the working limits of the trunk circuits in BD-89-A apply.
b. Functions.— (1) Supplies transmitter battery to commonbattery telephones.
(2) Provides means for supervising battery-operated trunk circuits and common-battery line circuits.
(3) Provides a non-locking lamp ring-off signal on magneto lines.
(4) Provides means for connecting the operator’s telephone set to the cord circuit.
(5) Provides means for ringing on either the tip or ring of the calling cord.
c. Connection to magneto lines.— (1) Incoming calls.—When the plug of the answering cord is inserted in the jack of a magneto line circuit the ES relay does not operate, since the sleeve circuit of the line jack is open. Under this condition the three windings of the A relay are connected series-aiding and remain bridged across the tip and ring of the answering cord for ring-off supervision. The operator answers the call with the TALK key in the operated position.
(2) Outgoing calls.—When the plug of the calling cord is inserted into a jack of a magneto line circuit the FS relay does not operate since the sleeve circuit of the line jack is open. Under this condition the three windings of the C relay are connected seriesaiding and remain bridged across the tip and ring of the calling cord for ring-off supervision. Upon the operation of the ringing key, ringing current is applied to the line. Except while ringing

on the line, the TALK key is operated so that the operator may know when the call is answered at the distant end of the line, since no supervision is obtained when the call is answered.
(3) Completion of conversation.—When a conversation is completed, ringing current should be applied to the line by either telephone user, in tne case of line-to-line connection, or by the distant switchboard operator in the case of a switchboard-to-switchboard connection. Ringing current over the line associated with the answering cord will operate the A relay. Ringing current over the line associated with the calling cord will operate the C relay. Operation of either the A or C relay will cause the RECALL lamp to light and remain lighted as long as ringing current is being received over the line.
d. Connection to outgoing and through line circuits.—The operation is the same as for outgoing magneto line calls and for completion of such calls.
e. Connection to conference circuit.—When the plug of a cord is inserted in a conference circuit jack, the BS or FS relay does not operate because the jack circuit is open at the sleeve. Under this condition the three windings of the A or C relay are connected series-aiding and remain bridged across the tip and ring of the cord. In the normal use of the conference circuit the relays associated with1 the half of the cord circuit connected to the conference jack do not function.
f. Connection to common-battery lines.— (1) Incoming calls.— When the plug of the answering cord is inserted in the jack of a common-battery line in response to a call, the BS relay operates, due to the ground on the line jack sleeve, and the supervisory lamp associated with the answering cord lights momentarily. The operation of the BS relay connects ground and battery respectively, , to the tip and ring of the cord through the No. 1 and No. 2 windings of the A relay, thus providing for transmitter and supervisory battery through the common-battery line circuit. In the event that the distant telephone is a telephone EE-8-A, separate transmitter battery is also provided at the telephone. The A relay operates since the circuit through its windings is completed at the distant telephone. The operation of the A relay short-circuits the supervisory lamp, thus extinguishing the lamp. The operator answers the call with the TALK key in the operated position.
(2) Outgoing calls.—When the plug of the calling cord is inserted in a common-battery line circuit jack, the FS relay operates and
34
TM 11-340
TELEPHONE CENTRAL OFFICE SET TC-2 15-16
the associated supervisory lamp lights in series with the FS relay. The operation of the FS relay connects ground and battery respectively to the tip and ring of the calling cord through the No. 1 and No. 2 windings of the C relay. Operation of the ringing key applies ringing current to the line. When the called telephone answers, the C relay operates and short-circuits the supervisory lamp, thus extinguishing the lamp.
(3) Completion of conversation.—When a conversation is completed, the parties hang up, and the circuit is broken at the switchhook or lever switch in the telephone, thus causing the A or C relay to release, which in turn causes the associated supervisory lamp to light. Removal of the plug from the jack releases the BS or FS relay and extinguishes the supervisory lamp, thereby restoring the circuit to normal.
g. Connection to dial and manual trunk circuits.—The operation of the cord circuit is the same as the operation of the circuit when it is connected to a common-battery line circuit except that the circuit through the windings of the A or C relay is completed in the trunk circuit switchboard equipment instead of through the distant telephone. Therefore no cord circuit working limits apply.
Figure 15.—Ringing circuit.
16. Ringing circuit (fig. 15).—The ringing circuit provides two-party selective ringing. Two-party selective ringing is used only on common-battery lines, and then only when it is desired to utilize party line service. The telephone instruments used for this type of service will be commercial type common-battery instruments with the bell circuit connected between ground and either the tip or ring of the line as desired. The master ringing key is the first

When the MR key is operated (handle inclined towards the operator) ringing current is applied to the tip side of the line with the ring side grounded. The terminals for connecting ringing power are located to the right of the cordshelf in the rear of the switchboard. A key designated EMG KEY on the schematic drawing (marked RINGING KEY-HAND on the switchboard), is used for switching on either power ringing or the hand generator. This key is located in the lower left-hand corner of the face of switchboard BD-89-A. The hand generator is a generator GN-41. A resistor lamp located above the cordshelf in the rear of the switchboard is connected in series with the power ringing circuit so that ringing on a short-circuited or grounded line will not interfere with ringing on another switchboard position using the same source of ringing power.
17. Operator’s telephone circuit and grouping key circuit (figs. 16 and 17).—An antisidetone telephone circuit which includes induction coil C-105, and is equivalent to the circuit in telephone EE-8-A, is provided in switchboard BD-89-A. A varistor is bridged across the receiver terminals to reduce acoustic shock to the operator from excessive voltages across the receiver terminals. The varistor consists of an arrangement of copper oxide disks, the resistance of

b. The use of patching cords is desirable, whenever possible, in order to reduce the number of cord circuits required on a conference connection. However, on account of complications arising on common-battery connections due to battery-supply conditions, it will be necessary to use a cord circuit for each common-battery line connected to the conference. In the case of trunked connections
39

and magneto lines, patching cords may be used. It must be remembered, however, that at least one cord circuit must be used in each conference for purposes of supervising the entire conference. Patching cords are not issued as a part of TC-2. See paragraph c following.
c. Patching cords.—Patching cords consist of two switchboard plugs connected by a piece of switchboard cordage of the desired length. If no standard patching cords are available they may be improvised out of two switchboard cords whose corresponding terminals are securely fastened together, and the two conductors insulated from each other. Patching cords may also be used to tie circuits through the switchboard in a semi-permanent manner, thereby avoiding the use of a cord circuit. In case this use is made of patching cords, it must be remembered that there is no supervision on the circuits so connected.
19. Switchboard test circuit (fig. 21).—This circuit is to be used in making routine tests of, and for locating trouble on the cord circuits, line circuits, trunk circuits, and the night alarm circuit. The tests are made by connecting the circuit under test to jacks in the switchboard test circuit either directly or by means of patching cords. The tests are made from the front of the switchboard. A visual or audible signal is provided for indicating the performance of the equipment under test. Before making the tests described below, the person making the tests must be familiar with paragraph 5, on operation of the switchboard.
a. Functions.— (1) To check the operation of the night alarm circuit.
(2) To test the lamps of common-battery line circuits.
(3) To apply an operation test to the drops of the magneto line circuits.
(4) To apply an operation test to the dial trunk circuit and the dial cord circuit.
(5) To apply an operation test to the manual trunk circuit.
(6) To test the cord circuits.
b. Detailed description of circuit operation.—(1) General.—If the circuit under test fails to operate as described, consult the detailed description of the particular circuit. Before readjusting any relays, the continuity of the circuit under consideration should be checked and tests made for other possible sources of trouble.

(g) Replace the heat coils or close the circuit at the terminal strip when the test is completed.
(6) Testing the common-battery manual trunk circuits (fig. 23). — (a) Disconnect the circuit by removing the heat coils, or open the circuit at the terminal strip.
(b) Insert into the B jack the plug of the test cord equipped with test clips. Attach the test clips to the manual trunk circuit binding posts marked T and R on the rear of the switchboard. Insert into the A jack a calling (front) plug of any cord circuit. The supervisory lamp of this cord should light from ground on the sleeve of the A jack.
(c) Apply ringing current to the cord in the A jack. The C relay of the trunk circuit should operate, locking itself up through ground on a contact of the trunk circuit A relay, lighting the manual trunk lamp and operating the audible signal of the night alarm circuit if the night alarm key is in the normal position.
(d) Insert an answering (rear) plug of any cord circuit into the manual trunk jack. This action operates the trunk circuit A relay from ground on one of the answer jack contacts. Operation of the A relay causes the release of the trunk circuit C relay, which in turn extinguishes the trunk answer lamp and stops the night alarm audible signal. Operation of the trunk circuit A relay also connects the winding of the trunk circuit B relay in series with the line windings of the repeating coil across the line, causing the B relay to operate from battery and ground supplied by the cord circuit connected to the A jack of the test circuit. Operation of the trunk circuit B relay connects a 500-ohm resistor across the line in a loop to the cord circuit, which results in the supervisory lamp of this cord being shunted out.
(e) Replace heat coils or close the circuit at the terminal strip when the test is completed.
(7) Testing the universal cord circuits.—The cord circuit lamps on the keyshelf are referred to as supervisory lamps. The cord circuit lamps on the switchboard face above the plugs are referred to as recall lamps. (Used only for disconnect or recall on magneto lines.)
(a) Operate and release test of supervisory relays A and C (fig. 24).—Insert the answering (rear) plug of the cord under test into the C jack and connect the test cord equipped with the key to the F jack. The supervisory lamp of the cord under test should light

until the key is operated. Operation of the key completes a circuit through the 1 and 2 windings of the cord circuit A relay, which operates, shorting out the supervisory lamp and causing it to be extinguished. Operate the key momentarily to apply a “soak” current to the supervisory relay. Withdraw the plug of the key-ended cord from the F jack and insert into the A jack. Operate the key to apply an operate test current to the supervisory relay. Release the key to apply the release test current to the supervisory relay. If the lamp remains lighted after operation of the key, failure of the supervisory relay to operate on the operate test value is indicated. Failure of the supervisory lamp to light upon release of the key indicates failure of the supervisory relay to release on the release test current. Repeat this test with the calling (front) plug inserted into the C jack instead of the answering (rear) plug in order to test the C supervisory relay. Test all cord circuits in the same manner.

20. Night alarm circuit (fig. 28).—The use of series line circuits makes the use of a conventional night alarm circuit unsatisfactory. The combined leakage current of all the line lamps in series with their respective lines causes an appreciable amount of line lamp current to flow at all times even when all lamps are idle.

the alarm
the trunk when the
winding of the transformer and the low-resistance winding of relay A in series. When the NA RLS key is restored, the circuit to the high-resistance winding of relay A is closed and the circuit is prepared for another signal.
(3) Operation of the NA key disconnects the bell from the magneto line and trunk circuits, opens the circuits to both windings of relay A, and connects direct battery to the line lamp common, shunting the low-resistance winding of the transformer. This prevents the operation of the night alarm bell when either line or trunk signals are received. Restoring the NA key again prepares the circuit for audible signals.
d. Magneto line and trunk signals.—When a magneto line or a trunk signal is received, direct ground is connected to the bell to sound an audible signal. The magneto line circuits and circuits are arranged to that the ground is removed operator answers, thus opening the circuit to the bell.
21. Fuse alarm circuit (fig. 28).—When a fuse blows,
contact of the fuse connects battery to the alarm bar, causing the buzzer to operate and provide an audible alarm. The buzzer continues to operate until the blown fuse is removed.

24. Cable connector circuit (fig. 30).—This circuit is utilized in extending leads from the battery and ground circuit, ringing circuit, and grouping key contacts, to junction box JB-19. In the event that a second switchboard BD-89-A is required, this circuit is used to extend the above mentioned leads from the terminal strip of the adjacent switchboard to junction box JB-19 mounted in this switchboard.
25. Working limits, general explanation.—The term “maximum external circuit loop” means that the sum of the resistances of all lines and equipment connected to the circuit in question should not exceed the values stated, in order to insure that the circuit functions properly. For example, the maximum external circuit loop of the common-battery line circuit (fig. 9) is 300 ohms. If the resistance of the line between the switchboard and the telephone does not exceed 200 ohms and the resistance of the connected telephone is 100 ohms, the sum is 300 ohms or just equal to the maximum resistance allowed. The resistance of the common-battery holding coil in an EE-8-A telephone is 100 ohms. In the above case, if the 300-ohm limit is greatly exceeded the line lamp may not burn sufficiently bright. This effect will be come increasingly noticeable as the storage battery approaches a state of discharge. Another example of the

use of working limits is as follows: Circuits in two different switchboards are to be connected together. One switchboard circuit has a working limit of 750 ohms, and the other switchboard circuit has a working limit of 1,000 ohms. In this case the 750-ohm limit is controlling. In each case it is necessary to use the sum of the line resistance plus the internal resistance in the distant connecting circuit in determining whether or not the value of maximum external circuit loop resistance will be exceeded. In case it is not possible to meet the working limits with one pair of conductors, it will be necessary to use two pairs in parallel, connected tip to tip and ring to ring at each end of the line.
26. Cabinet BE-79.—The arrangement of apparatus is shown in figure 2. An opening with a sliding cover is provided for incoming line wires in the lower part (each side) of the cabinet. An opening with a sliding cover is also provided in each side of the cover on the switchboard side of the cabinet, for the cables to the switchboard. This allows the covers to be put in place after the installation of the cabling. Space is provided below the protectors for 12 repeating coils C-161 (not furnished as part of the TC-2).
a. Cabling and cable connectors.—The cabling between cabinet BE-79 and switchboard BD-89-A consists of three rubber-jacketed ■cables, each containing 25 pairs of braid-covered, latex-insulated, No. 22 AWG stranded conductors. The cables, exclusive of the cable connectors, are 21 feet in length. The cable connector at the cabinet BE-79 end of the cable consists of a strip of insulating material on which is mounted a row of 50 binding posts to which the cable conductors are soldered. These soldered connections are inclosed in a copper-alloy protecting cover. Binding posts TM-197 are the same as those used on the terminal panel of switchboard BD-89-A. The cable connectors at the switchboard end of the cable consist of strips of insulating material between which is mounted a row of 50 spade terminals of Signal Corps design. The spade terminals are mounted in such a manner that some movement is allowed in order that the spade terminals will be self-alining when connections are made to binding posts TM-197 on switchboard BD-89-A terminal panel. The cable conductors are soldered to spade terminals. The soldered connections are inclosed in a copper-alloy protecting cover.
b. Protectors and associated terminal strips.—Two vertical strips of protectors are mounted in cabinet BE-79. Each strip is equipped
52
TM 11-340
TELEPHONE CENTRAL OFFICE SET TC-2 26-31
with 40 pairs of commercial high-potential protector blocks and heat coils. A terminal panel, equipped with 80 binding posts TM-197 for connecting the incoming lines, is mounted on the line side of the protectors. The central office side of the protectors is permanently wired to a terminal panel equipped with 80 binding posts from which the lines may be cross-connected to the repeating coils C-161 or to the cables to the switchboard.
27. Power equipment.—The power equipment included in the telephone central office set TC-2 is discussed in paragraphs 28 to 35, inclusive.
28. Storage battery.—a. The storage battery consists of two batteries BB-46 connected in series with cord CO-38. This provides a 24-volt, 75 ampere-hour, sealed type storage battery for furnishing direct current to switchboard BD-89-A. Cord CD-335 is provided for battery leads to panel BD-98. When in use, the battery is mounted on rack FM-31. Two cases CS-63 are furnished for transportation of batteries BB-46.
b. Rack FM-31, hammer HM-5, and three ground rods GP-29 are transported in case CS-72.
29. Power Panel.—For power control and distribution one cabinet BE-75 and one panel BD-98 are provided. These, along with associated equipment, are discussed in paragraphs 30 to 35, inclusive.
30. Cabinet BE-75.—This cabinet provides for protection, control, and distribution of 110-120-volt a-c power. When in use, cabinet BE-75 is mounted on a rack FM-30 with rectifier RA-36-A, B, or C. Cord CD-393 is furnished for connecting cabinet BE-75 to a local source of alternating current, and cord CD-395 is furnished to connect cabinet BE-75 to switchboard BD-89-A. When a second switchboard BD-89-A is installed, a-c power is connected from the first switchboard to the second by means of cord CD-394. When any circuit-breaker switch is closed, a-c power supply is connected to the correspondingly numbered socket. For transportation, cabinet BE-75 is packed in the case CS-73 with the rack FM-30 and the rectifier RA-36-A, B, or C. (See par. 35 for discussion of rectifier RA-36-A, B, or C.)
31. Panel BD-98 (figs. 30 and 31).—This panel contains a voltmeter and an ammeter for controlling the rate of charge of the storage batteries and is equipped with a Telering 20-cycle power ringer (see par. 32) which supplies ringing current when 60-cycle

alternating-current power is available, and an interrupter for providing ringing current from the battery power supply. The Telering 20-cycle power ringer is operated by plugging its power supply cord into a power outlet in cabinet BE-75 and closing the circuit-breaker switch corresponding to the power outlet selected. The interrupter (see par. 33) is started by the operation of the INT circuit-breaker switch on panel BD-98 and the interrupter circuit is completed by operating the rotating button-type key on the interrupter. Closing the A and B or the C circuit-breaker switches connects the 24-volt bus bars to the A and B sockets or to the C binding posts, respectively, which provide spare power terminals. The closing of the MAIN circuit-breaker switch connects the battery socket to the bus bars. A schematic diagram is shown in figure 31. Case CS-71 is furnished for transportation of panel BD-98.
32. Telering 20-cycle power ringer, Model H (figs. 31 and 32).—The Telering 20-cycle power ringer is a vibrating-reed type of frequency converter. It is designed to supply 20-cycle ringing current from a 110-volt, 60-cycle, a-c power supply. The reed vibrates between a contact screw and an electromagnet. The contact screw adjustment is set at the factory, and it is suggested that no change be made in the adjustment unless the reed vibrates in a surging manner, or there is sparking at the contact. If sparking occurs, it requires only the slightest turn on the contact screw, either inward or outward, to correct it. However, it is seldom that any change will be necessary. The adjustment of the Telering contact is practically opposite to that of other vibrating type power ringers, in that the contact gap in the Telering must be kept as wide as possible. Closing the contact gap does not increase the output, but instead will upset the adjustment, cause sparking, interfere with radio reception, and may prevent starting.
33. No. 84F interrupter (fig. 31).—a. The Western Electric Company 84F interrupter is a vibrating pole-changer type of ringer for converting direct current into alternating current for ringing. When the interrupter is properly adjusted, it is sparkless and noiseless in operation. When the machine is in constant use, daily inspection should be made to check for the following:
(1) Sparking at contacts.
(2) Noisy operation.
(3) Tendency of armature to stick to magneto (operating coils).
(4) Short circuits.
55
TM 11-340

SIGNAL CORPS
Figure 32.—Telering ringer, cover removed, showing vibrator assembly.
b. A weekly inspection of the condition of the contacts should also be made. If sparking occurs at the contacts in the operating magneto, they should be polished. If the ringing contacts spark, they should be polished. If polishing does not eliminate the sparking, the ringing springs should be readjusted. Do not attempt to adjust the springs without disconnecting the ringing battery at the fuses. If the armature can be made to lock by pushing it toward the magneto while the interrupter is in operation, the setscrew should be unscrewed slightly. If the adjustment of the ringing springs is affected by readjustment of the setscrew, a complete readjustment of the ringing springs should be made. The position of the weighting nut on the threaded screw at the end of the armature governs the frequency of vibration of the armature. The nut should be at approximately the center of the threaded portion of the screw. If the vibrating arm strikes the magnet, the operation of the

interrupter will be noisy. To eliminate the noise from this source, all the ringing springs should be moved in such a manner that the vibrating arm will be farther away from the magnet. The interrupter should then be completely readjusted.
34. Power supply.—Telephone central office set TC-2 is equipped to operate from 110-120-volt, 60-cycle, a-c power. Power unit PE-75-A, B, or C is provided to serve as a source of local power, in case commercial 110-120-volt, 60-cycle, a-c power is not available. The power unit is furnished with a collapsible case for transportation. Refer to TM 11-900 or TM 11-901 as required for operating instructions for power unit PE-75-A, B, or C.
35. Rectifier RA-36-A, B, or C.—This rectifier is provided for charging batteries BB-46. It is designed to mount on rack FM-30 and to operate from 100-125-volt, 60-cycle, a-c power. The rectifier is of the full-wave type and is adjustable for charging a 24-volt storage battery at a rate of from 2 to 12 amperes. The rectifier is transported in case CS-73. For detailed information on the adjustment of the rectifier for varying the charging rate, consult the instructions outlined in paragraph 6c. Figure 33 shows the circuit diagram of the rectifier.
36. Line test equipment—Cabinet BE—70—B.—A cabinet BE—70—B (wire chief’s testing cabinet) and its packing case, case CS-57, are furnished (see TM 11-345 for detailed functioning of parts). The cabinet is designed to make the following tests or operations on magneto and 24-volt common-battery telephone lines:
a. Talking to telephone user.

37. Maintenance.—a. General.—The greatest single factor in trouble-free operation is careful handling of the equipment while packing and unpacking, transporting, and installing. After the installation has been completed, all circuits, fuses, and protector blocks should be tested at least once each month, or more often where climatic conditions warrant.
b. Circuit breakers.—When a circuit breaker opens its circuit due to a flow of excessive current, the circuit breaker should not be re-closed until the cause of the excessive current has been determined and corrected. After the circuit breaker has tripped, the handle must be returned to the OFF position for resetting before the circuit breaker can be re-closed. The trip position can be readily recognized as a position midway between ON and OFF.
c. Working limits.—The loop resistance and insulation resistance of the lines connected to the switchboard should be maintained within the limits specified on the respective circuits. However, the loop resistance of common-battery lines may exceed the values specified on the drawings, provided the brightness of the switchboard lamp is satisfactory.
38. Alarm type fuses.—Inspection of an alarm type fuse will show that the fuse wire holds two springs under tension. In case a fuse is blown, the tension on the two springs is released and they assume different positions with respect to the body of the fuse. The front spring (with the glass bead) serves as a visual indication of the condition of the fuse, and the back spring serves to complete the fuse alarm circuit, thus giving an audible signal to indicate a blown fuse. Alarm type fuses must be properly installed in the fuse mounting in order that advantage may be taken of the alarm feature. The fuse must be so installed that the bent end of the
59
TM 11-340
38-41
SIGNAL CORPS
alarm contact spring (back spring) will be directly over the alarm contact stud, or alarm bus bar, on the fuse mounting. If the fuse has been improperly installed, the alarm circuit will not be completed, and consequently no alarm will be received. However, the fuse will be blown under overload conditions, thereby protecting the equipment.
39. Storage Batteries.—The electrolyte in the storage batteries should be maintained at the proper level. The voltage of the battery should be as follows:
Not less than 22 volts.
Not more than 30 volts if batteries are charged during use. Between 25.2 and 26.4 volts if the batteries are trickle-charged or floated.
Caution.—Violent gassing and a rise in temperature of the electrolyte are two indications of too high a charging current. Keep open flames, lighted cigarettes, and other burning articles away from the batteries at all times. Poor connections cause sparking and are therefore a very dangerous fire hazard. Do not change connections without turning off the MAIN circuit breaker on panel BD-98. The instructions for the care and use of the battery, outlined in TM 11-430, should be carefully followed.
40. Switchboard plugs, cleaning.—In order to maintain high-grade transmission through the cord circuits, clean all plugs as often as required to maintain brightness, using a light oil and cake rouge, or a paste type metal polish. The use of light oil and cake rouge is the preferable method of polishing plugs, as there is less tendency to use an abnormally large amount of polishing material. It is also easier to remove the unused portion of the polishing material from the plug upon completion of the polishing operation. Pour a few drops of light oil on the cake of rouge, thereby softening the rouge to such an extent that when the polishing rag is rubbed across the surface of the cake, a small amount of the rouge is transferred to the rag. Care must be taken when using either the rouge or paste type of polish to make sure that all surplus polishing material is thoroughly removed from the plug upon completion of the polishing operation.
41. Manufacturer’s drawings.—a. Relay terminal numbering.—The manufacturer’s drawings furnished with switchboard BD-89-A, and the figures used in this manual show sample diagrams of relay winding terminals and relay spring pile-up numbering as viewed
60
TM 11-340
TELEPHONE CENTRAL OFFICE SET TC-2 41-42
from the rear or wiring side of the relay. The diagrams do not show the complete numbering scheme, but do show the general system. For example, in figure 14, cord circuit, relays BS and FS each have a set of make contacts with springs numbered 11/. and 15. The sample diagram showing the spring pile-up numbering does not show either of these springs. However, it will be found springs Ilf. and 15 on the relay are in the same vertical row of the spring pileup as springs 11, 12, and 13, and are immediately above them in numerical order. For this general type of relay of Automatic Electric Company manufacture, the following rule may prove helpful: The first digit of the spring number denotes the vertical row; for example 1 indicates the left-hand vertical row, 2 the middle row, and 3 the right-hand row, as viewed from the rear or wiring side. The second digit of the spring number indicates the vertical position of the spring as counted from the bottom of the spring pile-up. For example, spring No. 25 will appear in the center vertical row and will be the fifth spring from the bottom. Each small solid semi-circle, shown on both the schematic drawings and the terminal diagrams, denotes the terminal of the inner end of a relay winding. This terminal is usually connected to the ground or low-potential side of the connected circuit, while the battery or high-potential side of the circuit is connected to the unmarked or outside ending of the relay winding.
b. Color of wires.—The manufacturer’s drawings and the figures in this manual show, in most cases, the color of the wire connected to the various terminals. In a few isolated cases it may be found that the color of the wire used in wiring the equipment does not correspond with the color shown on the drawings. If such conditions are encountered, it will be necessary to use care in checking the wiring, to see that the same color of wire is connected to the appropriate terminals, even though the color used differs from that specified on the drawings. An example of this condition has been located in some cord circuit relay units, which are wired as follows (reference fig. 14): A RED instead of a WHITE wire is used to make the connection between the inner terminal of winding No. 3 of the A relay and spring No. 31 of the BS relay. A like substitution has also been made, in some cases, between corresponding terminals of the C and FS relays.
