these devices ring when your telephone number is called. In 

most (but not all) areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices 

connected to one line should not exceed 5. To be certain 

of the number of devices you may connect to your line 

as determined by the REN, you should contact your local 

telephone company.

premises wiring and telephone network must comply with 

the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted

equipment, consult your telephone company or a 

qualified installer.

2  Rights of the Telephone Company 
  Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which 

may harm the telephone network, the telephone company 

shall, where practicable, notify you that temporary 

discontinuance of service may be required. Where prior 

notice is not practicable and the circumstances warrant 

such action, the telephone company may temporarily 

discontinue service immediately. In case of such 

temporary discontinuance, the telephone company must: 

(1) promptly notify you of such temporary discontinuance; 

(2) afford you the opportunity to correct the situation; and 

(3) inform you of your right to bring a complaint to the 

Commission pursuant to procedures set forth in Subpart 

E of Part 68, FCC Rules and Regulations.

  The telephone company may make changes in its 

communications facilities, equipment, operations or 

procedures where such action is required in the operation 

of its business and not inconsistent with FCC Rules and 

Regulations. If these changes are expected to affect the 

use or performance of your telephone equipment, the

writing, to allow you to maintain uninterrupted service.
