Didn't think you implied anything. Just pointing out where it originated. It is a good policy. We here in the states have been banning lead in plumbing since I think 1994. Lead-free solder for everything soldered on potable water and waste lines. Brass fittings and plumbing items like faucets containing lead are banned.

Now we only get lead in our bodies from whatever the Chinese send us.

Cat 6, if you run a ground to each lamp you now have a 565...not a 564. The lamp ground common is so the spare pairs can be used for other things ... like making a ten button set work on a 25 pair cable (three pair per line, eight lines plus hold and ICM = 10 buttons).

I solder a ton of audio cables and I don't think I have gone crazy (yet)!

No, actually a downgrade. At least that is the way I would see it. I believe the 565 was released to replace the dying and 'old fashioned' phones on systems that were originally installed with individual lamp grounds and A leads.
As for sodder, ever'body knows that ever'thing 'eelectronical' runs on smoke. When the smoke gets out thru a hole, the dang thing quits. All them reepare guys do iz blow sigareet smoke back in da hole and sodder it shut! smile John C.

But according to KLD, it was the 565 that had the individual lamp grounds. My 564 had one lamp ground for all 6 lamps.

Anyhow, I just finished wiring the new amp connector cable to the phone. I wired it in 565 format, with an individual ground for each lamp.

Easier then soldering the old amp connector back on!? Uhhhh....no, definetly a no on that one. It was borderline neuro-surgery.

It took an especially long time because I did not crimp the ends. I wrapped the stripped wire around each individual screw.

I'm sure it would have been much easier if I had stuck a fork head crimp on each wire tip, but I don't know how to crimp 24 AWG wire, nor do I have the tools.

Never mind how to get it done, try to find some 'fork head crimps'. I assume you are referring to what we call spade lugs. Those small ones are TOUGH to find. Haven't looked for them in 10 years, and they were scarcer than a clean teenagers room then! smile John C.

It's done already. Now I'm just waiting for my KSU, and I'm in business. smile
