ABSTRACT:
First and second telephone handsets or headsets are used to form a continuity test set providing voice communication. The telephone handsets are modified to connect the transmitter and receiver elements in series with test leads and current-limiting resistors. Connectors are provided at the ends of the test leads, and one of said handsets is provided with a battery to establish a loop current. LEDs are disposed in selected test leads to provide a visual indication of the flow of loop current, which is established when the connectors are attached to common conductors at the remote ends of a multi-conductor cable or conduit.
