John J. Carty · Proceedings of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers · 1907
From the paper it is evident that the telephone wire plant consists of the conducting wires joining points distant from each other, and a large amount of auxiliary apparatus pertaining thereto. This distinguishes the telephone wire plant from that part of the plant which is composed of switchboards, telephones, transmitters, and the various classes of apparatus associated therewith.
