ABSTRACT:
An electrical test kit for testing a telephone line from the terminals at the customer's end of the line includes a circuit for testing line continuity without falsely indicating to the voltage source that a telephone call has been answered, a push-button selection switch and a parallel pair of light-emitting diodes connected in reverse polarity relative to each other for determining polarity of the telephone line, and test pads in parallel with the continuity test circuit for permitting the attachment of a voltmeter so as to determine the magnitude of the internal resistance of the telephone line.
