How many telephones can I have?

Equivalence Number (REN), which is used to calculate
the number of items which may be connected to any
one telephone line. Your BT1700 has a REN of 1. A total
REN of 4 is allowed. If the total REN of 4 is exceeded,
the telephones may not ring. With different telephone

Any additional handsets and chargers that you register
have a REN of 0.
