Use of Residence Telephones for Business Purposes

Residence telephones are installed with the understanding that they will be used for normal social or domestic purposes. Residence telephone service will be changed to business service if used primarily or substantially for business purposes, or if the residence telephone number is advertised in connection with the sale of products or services. Telephone Safety The telephone is one of the safest appliances in your home or office. There are, however, a few situations where a telephone user needs to be cautious. Use of the Telephone Near Water The telephone should not be used while you are in the bathtub, show er or pool. Immersion of the telephone or handset in water could cause electrical shock. Use of the Telephone During an Electrical Storm You should avoid using the telephone during an electrical storm in your immediate areas; calls of an urgent nature should be brief. There is a remote risk of a dangerous electric shock from lightning when using the telephone during a nearby electrical storm. Use of the Telephone to Report a Gas Leak If you think you have found a gas leak, you should not use a telephone in the vicinity of the leak until the leak is repaired. The telephone con tains electrical contacts that could generate a tiny spark when you lift the handset and dial. While unlikely, it may be possible for this spark to trigger an explosion if the gas concentration is high enough.
