Tegui Standard Series: reference guide, Horizón handsets, diagrams, and maintenance

Tegui Serie Standard: guía de referencias, teléfonos Horizón, esquemas y mantenimiento

The Tegui Standard Series is part of the history of electronic entry phones that can still be found in many residential buildings. Its entrance panels, Horizón telephones, and equipment such as the E-10 and E-8 power supplies often come up when identifying an old installation, consulting a wiring diagram, or assessing a repair.

This guide brings together panel references, dimensions, telephone variants, and auxiliary equipment, along with identification and maintenance criteria. It is not a universal compatibility chart or a catalog of current availability. A historical reference can identify a part, but does not prove that it is still manufactured or can be replaced without adapting the installation.

What is the Tegui Standard Series?

Standard identifies a historical range of Tegui panels and entry phone solutions. To interpret an installation, three concepts must be distinguished: the outdoor panel series, the indoor telephone model, and the electrical system used. It is not enough for all the components to bear the same brand.

The Horizón telephone documentation lists Standard configurations with buzzer calls, electronic calls, and versions with call privacy. It also distinguishes conventional 4+n installations from other simplified 1+n installations. Therefore, a Standard panel alone does not indicate which telephone should be installed in a home.

How to identify a Standard panel

The historical diagram reproduced in this guide shows metal panels with audio grilles, rectangular name-card holders, and buttons arranged in one or more columns. Concierge panels also appear. The diagram itself describes 4 mm anodized aluminum, stainless steel call buttons, and illuminated name-card holders.

These features serve as a visual guide to the models shown, not as a technical specification for every old panel. To order a part, you need to identify its reference, dimensions, and actual configuration. Two panels that look similar may have different components.

Standard panels: models 100, 200, 300, and 400

The historical catalog page titled “Portero Serie Standard,” provided for this guide, distinguishes four families according to the button layout: model 100 in one column, model 200 in two, model 300 in three, and model 400 in four. The following tables transcribe the 52 references visible on that page.

The document’s distinction between panel dimensions and box dimensions is preserved. The pairs of measurements are reproduced as width × height; the supplied page does not explicitly specify the unit, so it should be confirmed before use in construction or manufacturing. The box depth is not specified. The box measurement should also not be taken as a masonry opening instruction without checking the installation method.

The Tegui Standard panel catalog in PDF is available for consulting the archived document. The two parts of the Standard video door entry guide are also brought together below.

How to interpret the tables without confusing models

The same number of buttons can correspond to different panels. For example, A08112 has 12 buttons in one column; A08206, 12 in two columns; A08304, 12 in three; and A08403, 12 in four. Their dimensions differ. To identify a panel, combine its reference number, columns, buttons, and measurements.

The number of buttons alone does not establish the actual number of connected homes or the maximum capacity of the installed system. These tables describe the panels shown on the catalog page, not their electrical operating conditions.

Components worth identifying

During an inspection, distinguish the outdoor panel and its audio unit, call buttons, indoor handsets, power supply, electric lock, and any switching equipment or special functions. The reference number of a single part does not describe the entire installation.

An important example is the E-10: its historical designation is power supply-amplifier. It should not be treated as a generic transformer interchangeable with any power supply with a similar voltage. When replacing it, the equipment’s functions and the complete system diagram also matter.

Historical references for power supplies and auxiliary equipment

The following associations come from the historical documentation on Horizón telephones and the technical article on the CAT-1 switcher cited below. They are presented for identification and reference, not as an exhaustive list of all parts manufactured.

Reference or designation Description Documented context
A08030 · E-10 Power supply-amplifier. Standard configuration with Horizón 0E7010 telephone; also appears with 0E7030 when ETS is added.
A08031 · E-8 Power supply associated with the electronic call configuration. Standard configuration with Horizón 0E7020 telephone.
A08035 · ETS Equipment associated with the variant with communication privacy. Standard set with E-10 and Horizón 0E7030 telephone.
005666 Standard panel wiring, according to the designation in the historical documentation. Appears in the Standard configurations described for the four Horizón models in this guide.
A08050 · CAT-1 Audio switcher. Standard installations with two access doors, according to the specific article about this equipment.
E1+1 Designation of the power supply in the simplified configuration. Historically associated in the source with the Horizón 0E7040 telephone. No unverified commercial reference is assigned here.
ESAT-1 Designation cited on the Standard manuals page. The page includes it among the equipment covered. Without a legible specification sheet or diagram for the equipment, its reference, terminals, or replacements are not detailed.

Important: E-8 and E-10 are equipment designations, while A08031 and A08030 are the associated references in the sources consulted. Both details should be retained when documenting an installation.

Horizón telephones: four variants that should not be confused

The casing of an old telephone is not enough to identify its technology. Historical documentation distinguishes four Horizón variants, with different call systems and functions.

Reference System and call Historical identification Standard combination listed in the source
0E7010 Conventional 4+n, buzzer call. Black button on the earliest versions described. 005666 wired system and E-10, reference A08030.
0E7020 Conventional 4+n, electronic call. Green button on the earliest versions described. 005666 wired system and E-8, reference A08031.
0E7030 Conventional 4+n, buzzer call and communication privacy. White button on the earliest versions described. 005666 wired system, E-10 A08030 and ETS A08035.
0E7040 Simplified 1+n, electronic call and communication privacy. Red button on the earliest versions described. 005666 wired system and E1+1 power supply.

The same source explains that white buttons and color-coded identification stickers were used later. Therefore, a white button does not prove that the handset is a 0E7030. The reference and system must be checked; moreover, the casing may have been replaced during a repair.

What 4+n, 1+n, and communication privacy mean

Conventional 4+n system

The term 4+n describes an architecture with shared wires and individual calls. Within this family, Horizón documentation distinguishes between buzzer calls and electronic calls. This difference must be taken into account when choosing a replacement handset; simply counting the connected wires is not enough.

Simplified 1+n system

The historical source identifies the 0E7040 as a simplified 1+n handset. It should not be confused with a conventional 4+n handset or a current BUS handset. Having few wires does not prove that two devices use the same technology.

Communication privacy

This function is intended to protect communication with the residence being called. In historical Standard configurations, the 0E7030 is shown in connection with the E-10 and the ETS. Therefore, the presence of special functions means the entire setup must be reviewed: a handset that can support calls or open the door does not, by itself, guarantee that all the original features are retained.

CAT-1 A08050: installations with two access doors

The specific technical article identifies the CAT-1, reference A08050, as an audio switcher for Standard installations with two access doors. It describes the following operating sequence:

  1. A call made from a panel activates that access.
  2. The other panel is automatically disconnected.
  3. When the handset is picked up in the residence being called, communication is established with the panel that initiated the call.
  4. The door-release button operates the door opener for the access currently in service.

This helps explain why an issue may affect only one entrance. Before attributing it to a handset in a residence, the installer must check the access selection and the shared components involved.

The historical source states that the CAT-1 was discontinued. This information should not be interpreted as confirmation that it is currently in stock, repairable, or available for supply. Nor does it authorize replacing it with a switcher from another series without reviewing the wiring diagram.

Download Tegui Standard documentation in PDF

We have gathered three archive documents here with direct links, so they can be consulted without relying on the old download paths. The panel catalog and video intercom guide are separate documents: identifying the outdoor panel is not enough to determine the electrical system of an installation.

Tegui Standard panel catalog

Open or download the Tegui Standard panel catalog (PDF, 1 page).

Archive document for consulting the range of Standard panels. It complements the identification tables in this article, which distinguish the model, reference, number of buttons, and panel and box dimensions based on the historical drawing provided. When considering a replacement, these details should be checked against the actual measurements and installation conditions.

Standard video intercom guide: part 1

Open or download the Standard video intercom guide, part 1 (PDF, 34 pages).

First part of the document archived as “Standard video intercom guide.” It should be kept and consulted together with the second part. The original scan is provided for direct viewing; this article does not attribute any chapters, references, or connections to this part that have not been verified in its pages.

Standard video intercom guide: part 2

Open or download the Standard video intercom guide, part 2 (PDF, 34 pages).

Second part of the document archived as “Standard video intercom guide.” The two files total 68 PDF pages. Before applying any technical information, check the relevant page to confirm that the model, installation, and auxiliary equipment match.

How to use these documents

The catalog serves as a documentary reference for the panels; the guides are identified as Standard video intercom documentation. They should not be confused with the two volumes of the audio intercom manual linked on the historical website. Nor should a video wiring diagram be applied to an audio installation simply because both use the name Standard.

These PDFs are scans with no extractable text in the review conducted for this update. Therefore, making them available for download does not mean that all their wiring diagrams have been verified, nor does it allow us to add equivalences, voltages, or terminals without a legible visual check of the specific page.

Manuals and wiring diagrams: how to use them correctly

The historical Tegui Standard intercom documentation page brings together links to two parts of the intercom manual and a digital video intercom wiring diagram with two entrances. These documents cover different scopes. The three downloadable PDFs in the previous section are provided through their current links in the Tegui Distel archive, without replacing or claiming to have verified the old downloads.

A PDF identified as E-10 is also available in our archive. Visually compare it with the installation’s reference and configuration before using it. This guide does not reproduce its terminal numbering or electrical values.

For a wiring diagram to apply, the equipment, call system, telephones, and installed accessories must match. Terminal numbers must not be transferred to another model based on similarity, and functions must not be assigned based on wire color.

Telephone replacement: reference information and limitations

The historical Horizón article lists replacement options for some variants: it mentions the T-71U, reference 374240, for the 0E7010; and the T-71U 374240 or T-71E 374200 for the 0E7020. These recommendations should be checked against the documentation for the replacement telephone and the actual configuration before replacing it.

To put their names in context, the Serie 7 technical manual describes the T-71E 374200 as a conventional telephone with an electronic call, the T-71Z 374210 as a conventional telephone with a buzzer call, and the T-71U 374240 as a universal telephone for replacing conventional systems with an electronic or buzzer call, subject to the tables.

The term “universal” refers to the specified scope of use for that telephone: it does not mean automatic compatibility with 1+n, communication privacy, Teguibus, or BUS 2 Wires.

The Horizón source also mentions the simplified telephone 374250 for the 0E7040 and warns of an E-11/E-11C condition in configurations with that power supply. This note should not be extrapolated to every Standard installation with E1+1. For the 0E7030 and 0E7040 variants, it is especially important to verify the special functions and the complete wiring diagram rather than rely on a generic equivalent.

These references are included as historical technical information; this does not imply current commercial availability or offer a direct replacement for every community.

Common faults: what information helps with diagnosis

The first useful distinction is whether the problem affects one home, several homes, the entire community, or just one of the entrances. Then it helps to check call, audio in each direction, and door release separately. A working buzzer does not prove that the audio is working correctly.

Observed symptom What the installer should check
Doesn’t call one home, but does call others. Call button and call circuit for that home, connections, and the telephone’s call receiver.
You can’t hear the street from inside the home. Audio path in that direction, indoor terminal, panel audio assembly, and corresponding connections.
The resident can't be heard from the street. Audio path in the opposite direction, indoor microphone, connections, and the shared components involved.
The bell works, but there's no audio. Both audio directions, checked separately; calling is a separate function.
There's audio, but the door won't open. Door-release control, circuit and power supply for the door opener, lock, and mechanical condition of the door.
Only one of the two entrances is affected. Components and switching for that entrance, including CAT-1 if it's part of the installation.
The whole building is affected. Power supply and shared components, general connections, and possible short circuits or leakage currents.

The table can help guide an inspection, but it can't identify a faulty part without testing. Measurements and any work on the power supply or wiring must be carried out by a qualified professional. Do not bridge connections or apply power as a test.

Repair or upgrade the installation

Keeping a system may make sense if the fault is isolated and a documented compatible solution is available. Consider upgrading when faults are frequent, special equipment is difficult to replace, or you want features that the original installation doesn't offer.

The decision shouldn't be based solely on the price of a door-entry telephone: the condition of the wiring, panel, power supply, access points, lock, and future maintenance also matter. Upgrading to another technology requires designing the system as a whole; it shouldn't be treated as simply replacing the power supply or connecting a modern terminal to the old wiring.

Frequently asked questions about Tegui Standard

How many buttons do the panels on this catalog page have?

The documented versions range from 1 button on model 100 to 60 on model 400. This does not mean that this catalog page includes every variant ever made, or that every installation can automatically support 60 residences.

Do two 12-button panels have the same dimensions?

No. The tables show 12-button panels in one, two, three, and four columns, with different part numbers and dimensions. You need to check both the panel and the box.

Are all Horizón telephones the same?

No. The documentation distinguishes 0E7010, 0E7020, 0E7030, and 0E7040, with differences in system, call, and communication privacy. The casing may look very similar.

Can E-8 and E-10 be swapped directly?

You shouldn't assume that. The consulted sources associate them with different configurations. A replacement requires a documented solution for the complete system, not just a match in appearance or power supply.

Can a Standard panel tell me which handset to buy?

Not by itself. You need to identify the existing handset, power supply, call type, and any accessories or special functions.

Will any universal handset work?

No. It must be suitable for the specific system and meet the conditions in its compatibility table. The word “universal” does not remove those conditions.

Can I install a two-wire monitor directly?

A Standard handset should not be considered a direct replacement just because it has two wires or is from the same brand. First, check the technology and determine what equipment is needed for the upgrade.

Can all the references in this guide still be obtained?

This guide does not confirm current stock or production. Its references are for historical identification; availability and any alternatives should be checked before purchase.

Documentation and scope of this guide

The four panel tables were transcribed from a historical Tegui catalog page titled “Standard Series Door Entry System,” provided by the Tegui Distel archive. The excerpt does not show an edition date or page number. The panel catalog in PDF and both parts of the Standard video door entry guide are also available in the downloads section.

The following sources were also used for this text: the Standard door entry system manuals page, the article Everything you need to know about Tegui Horizón handsets, the article A08050 or CAT-1 switch, and handset descriptions in the Series 7 technical manual. The two images in the body of the article come from the Tegui Distel historical archive.

Historical articles are sources of identification and context, not confirmation of current availability or a substitute for the manufacturer’s manual for the exact equipment. Terminal connections, voltages, and equivalents are not transcribed from scans without a verifiable reading of the relevant page. Nor is a launch date assigned to the entire range without sufficient primary documentation.

The key to maintaining a Tegui Standard system is to identify the entire setup, not just the panel. The panel reference, panel and back box dimensions, handset model, power supply, call type, and auxiliary equipment are the details that allow the installer to choose between a compatible repair and a well-planned upgrade.
