96 is the a.c.voltage to ringbell.
75v AC, 25Hz is the ringing voltage on a 'normal' line. I picked an ISDN line as an extreme example/scenario because it's always -96v DC.

Grass and anyways you are in Scotland you trouble maker ;o)))))how dare you move british telecoms property? im ringing the police
Not "many" people will have an ISDN line at home and when moving a master socket treat it the same as a live cable, cut very carefully or remove the ends from the socket and tape up until you re krone.To those who have cut a live BT cable when moving a master, did you ring and slit the cable, then cut the wires individually, or just chop the cable with your regular wire cutters/shears, thereby causing a split second short circuit at the exchange?
Touch an old ISDN line at -96v DC and then tell me it's very low risk!! Believe me, it's not pleasant!!
Have you ever been out with a married woman, someone else's yours doesn't count...........Your judgement being you can alter something you have no right to interfere with.
apples and oranges lol, i wouldnt ring up the womans husband/partner afterwards to tell themHave you ever been out with a married woman, someone else's yours doesn't count...........
i am the judge jury and executionerGrass and anyways you are in Scotland you trouble maker ;o)))))
i am the judge jury and toothless Irn Bru.......
I think that's why you are tied in for a time period it pays for the equipment so after that time period it is yours so after that period if it goes wrong they charge you.Maybe we could debate whether it's ok to adjust/realign a Sky dish?
Given how long they take to come out, sometimes...
I think the one I originally had would belong to Sky, but that has long since rotted away and been replaced by a nice new one I bought from my local aerial installer, who also fitted it, of course. (I'm not one for heights.)
Sky told me 4 weeks before they could come out... because it's on a chimney at 2 storeys high and they need 4 men and a cherry-picker or somesuch nonsense...local chap came next day, ran a ladder up, sorted it, £30, job done. I even saw him do his risk assessment first...glanced up, shook the ladder, decided it was fine, and up he went. Strange to say, although I never did cancel the Sky appointment, nobody ever arrived. I guess they can tell from their end if all is well...
But babies and kittens will die and armageddon is on the way as you "moved" the BT Master socket 3 inches to the left...........bloody heck.. started this thread and its turned into a right contentious issue.... people disagreeing with one and other... Its just a phone socket not the local exchange...
You forgot about the OXO Tower.......And only here would you find moving a BT Socket compared to moving the Gas Meter, the Electric Meter and having an affair with a married woman
youre still going to jail mate, no excusesbloody heck.. started this thread and its turned into a right contentious issue.... people disagreeing with one and other... Its just a phone socket not the local exchange...
