4 Pair Grey Drops
Figure 55: 4 Pair Grey Drop
The grey 4 pair drop is used primarily in BC. The color code is based on the PIC code (e.g. 1 ring & tip colors,
second ring and tip colors). It uses a “wrap on” hanger. It is stripped either with the pull string or by “banana
peeling”.
The wrap-on drop hanger is installed by first wrapping on one side of the wire wrap. The second side wrap
starts where the black mark on the first side is met with the black mark on the second side.
A “P” type house hook is generally used with the wrap-on style drop hanger.
