I really could use some help finding some documentation on specifics
for testing a DSL line.
I have been looking on the web, and can't find what I need.
 
Somewhere there must be documentation on how a line must be balanced,
without stray voltage etc.
 
Any help would be appreciated.

Your local phone company will know how to do that.

Ed,

By stray voltage can I assume you mean interference from power lines,
machinery, etc?

I work for a rural telco, and we pretty much get to do it all.

Bellcore/Telecordia docs are usually pretty good.
Also a web search via google will bring up hits on documents from the bigger
bells like SBC and Qwest, on their testing specs.
And I think you will have the fight between inside and oustide plant guys,
even if you find the documentation you are looking for. I am surprised you
company does not have specs they go by.
