Abstract
In a telephone network, different telephones are connected to a telephone line in a parallel manner. When two or more of the telephones are in use and conduct electricity, known as an “off-hook” condition, they are oftentimes provided with varying amounts of loop current from the telephone line to drive their telephone circuitry. To balance the respective loop current supplies to the off-hook telephones, at least one inventive balancing network is used and connected to one of the off-hook telephones which has the least operating resistance, with respect to all other off-hook telephones.
