Industry Canada Regulations
The Industry Canada label identifies certain equipment. This certification means that the
equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational, and safety
requirements. It 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 approved 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 jack-plug-cord ensemble (telephone extension cord).
The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not
prevent degradation of service in some situations. Existing telecommunications
company requirements do not permit their equipment to be connected to customer
provided jacks except where specified by individual telecommunications company
tariffs.
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 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.
