Encyclopedia > BT site engineering code

A BT site engineering code is a group of letters assigned by BT, or its predecessor the General Post Office, to a physical location which is equipped by the company with unusual amounts or types of telecommunications. BT Group plc (formerly known as British Telecommunications) which trades as BT (and previously as British Telecom) is the privatised former British state telecommunications operator. ... The British General Post Office (GPO) was officially established in 1660 by Charles II and it eventually grew to combine the functions of both the state postal system and telecommunications carrier. ... BlackBerry 7100t Telecommunication refers to communication over long distances. ...


Such codes relate to both BT's own buildings and major customer sites.


Historically, site codes beginning with the letter Q were government or defence sites. Codes beginning with the letter Y were radio-related sites. The latter category broadened somewhat over time to include many other kinds of customer site.

NCR553 Insect-Resistant Crops Through Genetic Engineering, MU Extension (4022 words)
Bt technology is only one example of ways genetic engineering may be used to develop insect resistant crops now and in the future.
Bt was first identified in 1911 when it was discovered that it killed the larvae of flour moths.
In the U.S., various strains of Bt are used to control spruce budworms and gypsy moths in forests, cabbage worms in broccoli and cauliflower, loopers or budworms in cotton and tobacco, and leaf rollers in fruits.
