Part from a 10 line switchboard?

[stengaard]

Hi Guys.

I found this part, it could have something to do with a 10 line switchboard, but I cannot ID it, maybe some of you knows where this spare part belongs to. It is nicely stamped with WaA, 1940 and more.

Thanks for looking & best regards

They are the sad remains of a connection strip for the old type 10 line exchange. These could be screwed to the terminals on top of the exchange and then could be connected via a 30-pin plug to a line connection board some distance away from the exchange:

Note the same "0 126 T 26" code:

Here it is placed on top of the old 10 line exchange:

It could also fits the more common late model 10 line exchange, but that already had the 30 pin connector built in, so no real need to use an external connection strip.

It is a pretty rare accessory for the 10 line exchange, unfortunately somebody seems to have taken a hacksaw to it and destroyed it.
