My dad isn’t willing to have a BT engineer around to check our line. I think he is worried the engineer will blame us for changing the master socket to an NTE5C, from the much older 2/1a BT type master socket, and charge us as a result.

The funny thing about this is, there’s really only 2 wires to connect (excluding the telephone wires on the front part, which we know aren’t too blame) and little to go wrong when connecting these wires with an NTE5C.

Is it actually against BT’s rules to rewire /upgrade the master socket? Even if it was done correctly?
