3. The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices which
may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive RENs on the
telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response
to an incoming call. In most, but not all area, the sum of RENs
should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of
