TELEPHONE CONNECTION REQUIREMENTS
Except for ringers provided by telephone company, all connections to the telephone
network except for made through standard plugs telephone company provided jacks, or
equivalent, in such a manner as to allow for easy and immediate disconnection of the
terminal equipment. Standard jacks should be so arranged that, if the connected plug
is withdrawn, no interference to the operation of the equipment at the customer’s premises
which remains connected to the telephone network shall occur by reason of such
withdrawal.
INCIDENCE OF HARM
Should terminal equipment or protective circuitry cause harm to the telephone network,
the telephone company shall, where practical, notify the customer that temporary dis-
continuance of service may be required. However, where prior notices are not practical,
the telephone company may temporarily discontinue service if such action is deemed
reasonable in the circumstances. In the case of such temporary discontinuance, the
telephone company shall promptly notify the customer who has the right to bring a
complaint to the FCC if he feels the disconnection is not warranted.
