Industry Canada Requirements
Notice
The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This
certification means that the equipment meets certain
telecommunications networks protective, operational, and safety
requirements. The Department does not guarantee the equipment
will operate to the user's satisfaction.

permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local
telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed
using an acceptable method of communication. In some cases, the
company's inside wiring associated with a single line individual

(telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that
compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of

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 appropriate electric inspection authority, or
electrician, as appropriate.
