IF IN DOUBT - SEEK EXPERT ADVICE Ringer Equivalence Number There is no limit to the number of telephone sockets you can have on one telephone line, but the number of telephones that can be connected at the same time is limited by their Ringer Equivalence Number (REN). All approved telephone equipment which plugs into the telephone line should have an REN indicated on it. The phoneflash has an REN of 0.5. The total of the REN added together should not be more than 4 otherwise the phoneflash or other equipment might not flash or ring properly. Most equipment has a REN of 1 so 4 pieces of telephone equipment e.g. 2 telephones, 1 phoneflash and an answerphone (all with a REN of 1) would be the most that could be connected at once. The phoneflash may be connected to Direct Exchange Lines (D.E.L.), and any parallel with other approved apparatus, where calls may be answered when a ringing indication is given. It is however, not suitable as an extension to a Pay Phone Circuit, nor should it be connected to shared service lines on the Instructions for use
