Default Re: Telephone cradle switch(es)

If you look at telephones made for non UK system with only 2 wires, it is almost the same. The splitting from 2 to 3 wires done in the UK master socket i just moved in to the telephones used in many other countries. The minimum you need if you have to improvise is one single contact breaking the connection when you go on hook, most telephones has more due to the need of not having any loud clicks in the receiver when you press the hook-switch, and pretty often on European telephones something disconnecting the ringer when going off hook is pretty common.
