Wiring a phone socket

Markvtos · 2008-11-25 11:36:25

My socket faceplate got broken and i'm replacing it with a new one. A friend said the 2 main wires from the phone wire (i have 4 wires all together) should be connected to the Red and Green wire in the faceplate. Is this correct?

That would have required me to actually read that page though to be sure of an answer, I was too lazy to do that.
