I need to rewire phone sockets (in Aust) Found 2 black wires each containing red,black, blue, white. What now?

Question

I have taken the old wall sockets out. The new wall socket has 6 connections (but the colour markings don't match the wire colours. Can someone tell me how to wire them up. There are three outlets

Answer 1

Have you  disconnected the wires from the socket, the new socket , look at the way the old one was wired up and follow that. one wire at a time, just match the section that the old one is wired , just follow each socket and it should be ok if you have not pulled the wires out of them.

Answer 2

See if these diagrams help:

Typically,

Red-Green is line1

Black-Yellow is line2

White-Blue for line3

Most phones are wired for line1 (Red-Green).
