3.  INSTALLATION 
3.01 
When  planning  the  installation  of a  hand 
telephone 
set 
together 
with  its  companion 
base, consider the following: 
e Safety for yourself, customer, and maintenance 
personnel 
e
Location-desk, 
table, wall, etc. 
e Availability of power outlet for hand telephone 
set 
dial light transformer 
e Space requirement 
e General appearance of installation 
3.02  The  plastic  housings  of the 
ACl 
and  ADI 
bases are secured by  captive housing screws 
located  behind  the  number  card  and  number  card 
retainer. 
To 
remove  the housing from  either base 
assembly, use a 
KS-16750 type releaser or equivalent 
to  remove  the  number card  retainer (Fig. 
5).

3.03  The 
ACl 
base  may  be  mounted  directly  to 
a firm  vertical  surface. 
If 
necessary,  use a 
155-type  adapter or  182-type  backboard.  Refer to 
appropriate  section 
in 
Division 
463 
for  additional 
information on  adapters and backboards. 
3.04  When inside wire to the ACl (wall) telephone 
base 
is 
exposed, 
terminate 
the 
line 
and 
transformer 
wiring 
at 
a  common  bridging  point, 
such 
as 
a  42A  connecting  block.  Run  one 
quad 
station 
wire 
from 
the 
connecting 
block  to 
the 
telephone base.  Wiring may enter from the opening 
at 
the bottom, top,  or through the backplate. 
3.05  In  cases  where  an  inside  wire  is  already 
in 
place  through  a  wall,  an  exposed  wire 
run 
may be necessary between the dial light transformer 
and the base.
