FB-number
I know what an FB number is, but not what it stands for - though as it's a specific name I don't know if it should be translated. Explanation below:
"Telia har redan ett system för att hålla reda på bland annat koppartrådar utan telefonnummer - FB-numren. Det har sedan tidernas begynnelse gått alldeles utmärkt att beställa ett 'rent' kopparpar utan telefoni på. Så, exakt var i ligger problemet? Vill man bara ha ADSL utan telefonabbonemang är det väl inte svårare än att man tilldelas ett FB-nummer för kopparparet?"

Comment: "Thanks, Clare - I think you're right, also having found 'FB'used in English references."
