INTRODUCTION
OVERVIEW OF TELCO WIRING
Many phone companies have updated their color standards due to
the use of Cat 5 cable for most phone line installs, and keep
residential and business installs in line with each other . In the new
standard, there is no green, red, black or yellow wires, they have
been replaced by white/blue, blue/white, white/orange, and
orange/white . If the wire is primarily orange with white stripes
then that color is orange/white . Refer to the table below . The NID
labels will most likely have the old coloring scheme on them, and
most telephone wiring components you can purchase will still
reflect the original colors .

NOTES:
• Use 18 to 22 AWG twisted cable (Belden #9501 or equivalent)
for all telephone line connections.
• Avoid splicing wires when possible or use gel filled telephone
splice connectors to prevent connectivity problems.
• The voltmeter measurement between the Tip and Ring should
INTRODUCTION
be between 48 and 53 Vdc.
• Never run data wires and high voltage wires in the same
conduit. The high voltage wires may interfere with the data
wires and cause the system to malfunction.
• Reversed polarity will not damage the unit, however, some
telephones will not function properly.
• The EL1SS is intended for use with a single access control
system (phone line can not be shared with multiple EL1SS's).
