Notice to the users of the Canadian Public Switched Telephone Network
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 the BRU3, users should ensure that it is permissible to be
connected to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The BRU3
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. Any 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 line and internal metallic
water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be
particularly important in rural areas.
On the BRU3 is a label that contains the Load Number (LN) for the BRU3. The
LN is assigned to each BRU3 and denotes the percentage of the total load to be
connected to a telephone loop which 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 LNs of all devices
does not exceed 100.
