Canadian Industry Requirements
Notice: The Canadian Industry Canada 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 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. ny
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 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: Users should not attempt to make such connections
themselves, but should contact the electric inspection authority, or
electrician, as appropriate.
The Load Number (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes
the percentage of the total load to be connected to a telephone loop
that is used by the device, to prevent overloading. The termination
on a loop may consist of any combination of devices subject only to
the requirement that the total of the Load Numbers of all the devices
does not exceed 100.
