10 Ohm chassis ground resistor is
open.

Check the DC resistance for
10 Ohms between the chassis and
pin #1 of any intercom connector.
If this condition occurs, it is
because the system ground came
into contact with something that
was “HOT” with respect to the
power supply earth ground.
Carefully check the system ground
and AC distribution in the area.

Warning: This is a potentially
dangerous situation. A shock hazard
may exist between a remote station
headset and ground.

Replace cable with individually
shielded pairs.

Headset cables are not wired
properly or shielded properly.

Correct wiring. Use headsets with
properly shielded wiring.

Program signal sounds
distorted.

Overload of program input circuit.
