| 1. | Butt Set | ||
|
Special test phone used by telephone repairmen. It has alligator clips on the leads so it can be quickly attached to the line connection screws on a circuit panel. It is derived from the word "butt-in-ski" because it can be used to eavesdrop on phone calls. For a photo, search Google Images for "butt set" The line itself is dead. I hooked my butt set to the main panel and couldn't get a dial tone.
