Special Requirements For Canada

Certain requirements exist for data communication products manufactured for use in Canada. Principle among these requirements is the application of the IC label as described below. However, certain data communication products do not require the IC label nor adherence to IC requirements. If this is the case the IC label will not be affixed to the units.

Industry Canada (IC) Requirements

IC labels are affixed to each unit sold in Canada. This label has the certification number for that particular unit. The numbers are different for each model.

The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational, and safety requirements. IC 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 acceptable 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 connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.

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. For their own protection users should ensure 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.
