The background was the S derberg, who had started a telephone union in Christiania, felt that Bell System had been charging too high prices. In 1885 the company was made aksjeselskap limited and a year later Aker ASA Akers Mekvaniske V rksted became the largest owner. EB became the largest domestic producer of telephone systems as well as export. But during the 1920s when the automatic centrals were introduced, EB lost its leading position. Instead focus was moved to the consumer market, and in 1928 Ericsson L. M. Ericsson became the main owner of EB, granting a great deal of patents that EB could utilize. EB also had close connections with Telenor Televerket , whom EB was the largest producer of telecommunication equipment for. This was especially true in the late 1960s to abolish waiting lists for telephone lines. The Swedish ASEA eventually bought 67 of EB, and in 1988 the company became part of the new Asea Brown Boveri ABB group, through the brand EB was used until 1993, when ABB bought the rest of EB.

The locomotives were built by ASEA . History The O series was built for the first railway electrification electrified railway in Sweden, Malmbanan. ASEA started testing out technology with a test unit in 1908, and by 1914 the first Oa locomotive was delivered, along with the passenger hauling SJ Pa Pa . At first it was the northern part of Malmbanan, from Kiruna to Narvik that was electrified. The steam locomotives had been hauling 28 wagons at 10 km h, but the new agreement signed in 1913 with LKAB meant that SJ had to haul 40 wagons at 30 km h to transport enough ore. The solution lay in a joint production between Siemens AG Siemens of Germany and ASEA. The Siemens locomotives were designated Oa while the ASEA locomotives were designated Ob . The trains had 657 Watt kW motors. These stayed in service on the northern section until 1923 when the southern section to Lule also was electrified, at which time they were moved to the southern section. A new series of Oe and Of locomotives were delivered. In the 1950s when larger trains were put into service, some of the Ofs were rebuilt to triple units, designated Of3 . They were also supplemented with the new SJ Dm3 Dm series that eventually replaced them.
