I am still keeping my house analog phone for house alarm and recently it is faulty. TM has came and claim that it is my internal wiring which is having problem, I've checked it seems that although there is voltage around 12v but it stlll it won't establish connection, no ring tone.

Is something like ... nak putus tapi tak putus lagi.

You should have paid him to do new wiring when he was in your house. Wont be expensive .. labour 100rm...material foc from co... and if still dont work, dont pay....tm problem.

the voltage is consistent, i would like to troubleshoot because it is a conceal wiring before resorting to do new wiring.

What voltage are you talking about? As far as I know the phone line voltage is -48V. When your phone is off hook, then the voltage dropped to -9 ~ -12V.

So, if you are talking about phone line voltage, then must be something faulty or switched on that pull the current. The phone line is current driven device. So, the voltage fluctuation is normal depending on what is using the current.

I am having 2 looping from TM, one goes to ground flr and another to the 1st flr, both having around 12v but funny is that only the ground flr can't be used. But I do observed that there are 4 wires in 1 loop and even though 2 wires which is not connected to the source from TM but yet it still have voltage around 12v!

Bring a phone direct connect it at the incoming if there's a joint outside.

You can try using new wires to do looping to test it works.
