ABSTRACT:
A modular device for a telephone network interface apparatus having separate connection and plug-actuated testing compartments. The compartment for connection having at least one pair of contact wires for connection to a subscriber premises line and at least one pair of contact wires for connection to an incoming telephone company line, and an arm member mounted for insertion in the connecting compartment and into engagement with the subscriber and telephone company contact wires effecting the connection between the pair of subscriber contact wires and the pair of telephone company contact wires and for being withdrawn from the connecting compartment causing the subscriber contact wires to be disconnected from the telephone company contact wires to provide a point for demarcation therebetween. The subscriber contact wires and telephone company contact wires are preferably oriented in a manner to facilitate their physical connection through the contact engagement of a nonconducting arm member inserted within the connecting department. The compartment for testing having at least one pair of telephone company contact wires for engagement with the plug of an operating telephone inserted into the testing compartment to facilitate the determination of whether a fault exists on the subscriber premises line or the incoming telephone company line. The telephone company contact wires within the testing compartment are preferably spaced apart and/or separated by insulating material in a manner to improve their dielectric strength.
