Telephone Connection
The Canada 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, the user should ensure it is permissible to connect it to the
facilities of the local communications company. The equipment must 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
conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian 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 that the
user disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure, for their own protection, that the electrical ground connections of the
power utility, telephone lines, and internal metallic water pipe systems, if present, are
connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
