Battery Supplies. 50-volt D.C. for operating the relays at the Control.<br />
The Busy lamps (P.O. Switchboard type) are usually illuminated from an A.C.<br />
source, since the load on a battery might, at certain periods, be a heavy one. In the<br />
event of a mains failure, the system can still be operated without the busy lamp<br />
indications. It is recommended that the call lamps be operated from a battery, since<br />
the load is not as heavy as that of the busy lamps.<br />
As they cannot easily be dispensed with it is preferable to have a constant<br />
source of supply, independent of the local mains. In some cases, 6 volt switchboard<br />
lamps have been used for both call and busy positions, thus giving a lower power<br />
consumption.<br />
Line Signalling Supply . . . . This voltage to be in accordance with<br />
the curves on pages 51 or 52, derived<br />
from A.C. mains rectifier, storage<br />
battery and charger or primary<br />
cell battery, as required.
