   - [[telecoms:alphafubapsu|Fuba]] ferro-resonant transformer, 240v input and  50V ac output. This would feed the amplifier in the cabinet and also line power any downstream line extender amplifiers, these were all located underground.

+  - 240v power supply feed to [[telecoms:alphafubapsu|Fuba]] transformer, via Wylex consumer unit. Note the lack of a electricity supply provider main fuse / cutout, so the Consumer Unit was fed directly from the incoming street main cable. Unless this was already removed...

+This one has been painted green for some reason and the transformer is made by Alpha.
+Depending on where they were in the network, some DLA cabinets had two transformers fitted, one for the the DLA amplifier and line extender amps fed from it's outputs and the second just for line power to other downstream amps. To avoid back feed, all the amps could have an isolator removed to make an unpowered input or output.
