Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power
utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together.
This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
Warning!
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 provides an indication of the
maximum number of terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone interface. The termination on
an interface may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum
of the Ringer Equivalence Numbers of all the devices does not exceed 5.

Certification
Submit the affidavit on the next page to the telephone company. This affidavit is required if you use
digital terminal equipment without encoded analog content and billing protection to transmit digital
signals containing encoded analog content which are intended for eventual conversion into voiceband
analog signals and retransmitted on the network. Here are more qualifications of this requirement:
●
The affidavit shall affirm that either no encoded analog content or billing information is being
transmitted or that the output of the device meets Part 68 encoded analog content or billing
protection specifications.
●
The end user/customer is responsible to file an affidavit with the local exchange carrier when
connecting unprotected CPE (customer premises equipment) to a 1.544 Mbps or subrate digital
services.
●
Until such time as subrate digital terminal equipment is registered for voice applications, the
affidavit requirement for subrate services is waived.
