It doesn't happen with everyone who use this type of power method,
but suffice to say, it is a possibility to contemplate.
You open a big can of very mean worms, .............
but I have killed them all long, long ago.
I could explain virtually all of them from a safety standpoint, and
other standpoints also.
I have worked in telephone exchanges, designed and build custom
regulated power supplies to power many things from their huge power
supplies, ....... with their sanction and permission.
Never worked for the phone company, but
as an independent technician or contractor.
And I think, I may have build the first phone line powered silver
generator, years before one or two similar showed up on the
internet. Never read anything about it, or got any idea from
anywhere, other than my imagination.
I have also worked with hundreds of telephone leased circuits too,
for many purposes.
That is another book.
The voltage I am concerned with, is the ringing voltage. That will
get your attention in grand style.
If I have to tell you about that, .......... You have never
experienced it. <grin>
The phone line generator consists of
1 full wave bridge
1 LED
1 Resistor
About as simple as one can get, nothing automatic, all manually controlled.
Here are some pictures. http://www.fugitt.com/files/phonegen/
As to a fire hazard, I can't help but appreciate your concern.
But if I could build 1,000,000 and give them all away, I would bet
everything I own, no fire hazard would exist and not one fire would result.
And of course Electrical Safety is one of my main concerns. I preach
it everywhere I go.
If anyone does not want to listen, they can get up and walk away, I
will tell them, whether they want to hear it or not.
In any house, I would wager I can find hazards and electrical code
violations..........
As to my certification, I am a Master Electrician and Certified
Electrical Inspector, among many other things.
It takes wattage to start a fire, it takes wattage to make CS ( but
not much ) and it takes wattage to melt down hydrogen
generators. Many amateurs that do not understand are melting
hydrogen generators by the hundreds, and by the thousands.
Generally, No wattage, no work, no wattage, no fire, or much of anything else.
Finally, you do not appraise a device by one that is damaged, used
improperly, shorted, or otherwise has a technical problem.
Anything man has ever made, ................. Fails.
From Airplanes to Space Shuttles, .......... and everything else.
The number of feet, hundreds, thousands, or miles of small telephone
wire has tremendous voltage drop. The amount of current and wattage
it can deliver is very small indeed.
And if a few things are know, I can calculate that.
Safety is JOB ONE, anywhere you go and anything you do.
In most every crowd, I take the job of Safety Inspector, and back off
and watch, and look for hazards.
Why NOT ? Someone needs to do it.
