Wiring the Lightning Protection Module to the
Network Interface Box
The final step in establishing telephone service is wiring the
lightning protection module to the telephone company’s network
interface box. Accomplish this task in the following way:
1. Open the front cover of the telephone company's network
interface box, and temporarily disconnect the test plug.
Opening some network interface boxes may require a special
tool available only through the telephone company.
2. Remove 3 inch (7.6 cm) of insulation from the lightning
protection module service cable to expose the four insulated
wires.
3. Cut off the black and yellow wires (running from the lightning
protection module) down to the level of the external insulation.
4. Strip ½ inch of insulation from the green and red wires.
5. Slice a hole in the rubber grommet in the bottom of the
network interface box (when necessary), and run the wires up
through the grommet into the box.
6. Loosen the screws for tip and ring in the network interface
box. Wrap the following wires around the designated posts
and then re-tighten the screws until snug:
Red wire

Green wire
