    BT Wiring Question

    IF you have two bills there should be two numbers,which ever number you don`t have,ring up b.t and get them to line check it,if what you say is correct there should be a working line in each property which ever one is missing should test faulty.Easy as that.

    BT Wiring Question

    Its bad practise to leave just the b2 on a dacs,if the Eu exchange unit loses sync with the RU remote unit and there is no b1 connected the b2 will be cut off as it will not re sync,A engineer in a pcp or joint could easily disconnect the pair when re making a joint or removing the dreaded blue...
