AFAIK, a telephone line on its own does not generate a British ring. A 
capacitor is required on a BT master socket, or is required on a master 
adaptor for an RJ11 socket, to generate the ring.

I'm not sure whether this refers to "ring tone" (the buzz you hear when 
you pick up the phone) or "ringing sound" (the alarm you hear when an 
incomming call happens) though.
