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. 
 
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.
