CIRCUIT DEVICE FOR FEEDING TO MIDDLE POSITION OF COMMUNICATION TRANSMISSION TECHNIQUE BY MONITORING OUTPUT VOLTAGE OF AT LEAST ONE FEEDING POSITION

摘要

1. A circuit arrangement for the remote feeding of intermediate stations by means of direct current series feeding in a device relating to communications transmission technology, wherein in a remote supply circuit there is a series connection of two constant current sources (1, 2, 20) arranged in supply stations of the communications transmission device and connected to one another by means of a pair of supply lines, and wherein a first constant current source (1) contained in a first supply station is adjustable to a larger current value than a second constant current source (2, 20) contained in a second supply station, so that in normal operation only the first supply station set to the larger current feeds, and a device for monitoring the output voltage is connected to at least one of the two constant current sources, characterized in that the monitoring device, which is connected to the output of the second supply station, comprises a device for monitoring the polarity of the two partial output voltages which are respectively related to reference potential, and that a reversal of polarity of at least one of the two partial output voltages serves as criterion for an error message.
