DOC CERTIFICATION
The Industry Canada Ringer Equivalence Number Notice
The Canadian Department of Communications label identifies certified equipment. This
certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective,
operational and safety requirements. The Department does not guarantee the equipment will
operate to the user’s satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the
facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an
acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the company’s inside wiring associated with a
single line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly
(telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above
condition may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to some certified equipment should be made by an authorized maintenance facility
designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or
equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to
disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the ground connections of the power utility,
telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, are connected together. This precaution
may be particularly important in rural areas.
CAUTION Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact
the appropriate electric inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.
The RINGER EQUIVALENCE NUMBER (REN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the
