Wondering if anyone has had this problem. Customer has a Nortel MIC's phone system with 6 lines and trunk and station expansion modules. When a call would come in on Line 1 it would ring twice and disconnect. When I would call in I would hear two rings, the disconnect and then you would hear a dial tone. I disconnected the line from the system and would ring the line at the Demarc only. No problems. I reconnected the line and the problem was there immediately. Next I swapped cards. No change. I moved the line to line 27 on the second card. Worked fine. Two weeks later line 3 did the same thing. Did all the tests and ended up moving to line 28. Worked fine. Eventually I replaced the line card. Moved lines back to Line 1 .3 on the new card. Worked fine for two weeks and then line 1 started doing it again. Had customer cal Telco and have them test the lines. They said all was OK. To make a long story short, I replaced the phone system, cards again, software, amp cables, 66 blocks, pairs to phone system from Telco. The last thing I did was measure the line voltage. All 6 lines are around 52.7 volts and 59 volts when ringing. What is the voltage range??? My guess is it is a Telco issue. Any HELPPP with this would be appreciated

I could be wrong here, but I thought ringing had to be in the 80 volt and higher range.
What is the miliamp reading on each line?

What are the voltage requirements on the system. High and low. Obviously, I am not an electrician

Must be between 90-120 AC. If line measures 59V DC then you OK. I am wondering where are you getting a dial tone from when you are calling in? It is look like DISA set up.

phone company couldn't get enough pairs to this bldg so they brought a fiber in next door and from there they ran copper about 100 feet to my customers bldg. I am thinking that the dial tone I am getting is from them

That is where you have your disconnects from! They are coming from T1 and MUX or Channel Banks.
