Not necessarily. All is takes is one bad jack to short the pair, thus putting the others Out of Service as well. Happens here all the time with corrosion on the needle pins of the jack being corroded. [/b]
tell me about it, as a kid we always were treated to a visit from bell the day mom would strip wallpaper. Those old copper jacks corroded in no time. Bell got smart in the 90s, before getting out of the inside wire business they started installing aluminum jacks
