Chapter 2: Installation
CANADIAN DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATIONS NOTICE
The Canadian 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 users 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 companys inside wiring
associated with a single line individual service may be extended by means of a certified con-
nector 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 equip-
ment, 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 con-
tact the appropriate 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 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 Load Numbers of all the devices does not exceed 100. For
Sensaphone ISACC Models 5000 and 5100, the Load Number is 8.
