Abstract

584,358. Signalling over power circuits. AUTOMATIC TELEPHONE & ELECTRIC CO., Ltd., and SAVILLE, W. Dec. 29,1944, No. 26064. [Class 40 (iv)] In a signalling system in which high-frequency signalling currents are superimposed on electric supply mains, a test is made immediately prior to signalling to ascertain whether any currents of signalling frequency are present on the line. Any output from the transformer L1, L2, which is tuned to the signalling frequency, is superimposed on the standing voltage on the grid of a gas-filled valve CCT and, if of sufficient amplitude, causes it to fire and operate relay TR. Contact TR1 renders the signalling master switch MS inoperative for as long as the parasitic currents persist, at the same time actuating an audible or visible alarm over lead 14. Alternatively, the glow of the valve CCT may be used as an indicator. If there are no parasitic currents on the mains when the master switch is first operated, relay MSR operates and locks over MSR1 while MSR2 initiates signalling. Thus, disturbances occurring during signalling have no effect. The master switch MS can be made to open a point in lead 14 to prevent an alarm being given by signalling currents and switching can be incorporated at points 10, 11, 12, 13 to make the equipment responsive to other desired frequencies. A contact voltmeter as described in Specification 580,393 may be substituted for the gas-filled valve.
