CANADIAN DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATION NOTICE 

 
NOTICE:  The Canadian Department of Communications (DOC) 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, make sure you are permitted to connect it to the facilities of the local 
telecommunications company.  You must install the equipment using an acceptable method of 
connection.  In some cases you may also extend the company’s inside wiring for single line individual 
service by means of certified connector assembly (telephone extension cord).  You should be aware, 
however, 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 
designed by the supplier.  Any repairs or alterations made by a user to this equipment, or equipment 
malfunctions, may give the telephone communications company cause to request the user to 
disconnect the equipment. 
 
For your own protection, make sure 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. 
 
Caution:  Do not attempt to make electrical ground connections yourself, contact the appropriate 
electric inspection authority or an electrician. 
 
NOTICE:  The load number (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of the total 
load to the telephone loop used by the device, to prevent overloading.  The termination on a loop may 
consist of any combination of devices, subject to the requirement that the total of the load numbers of 
all the devices does not exceed 100.
