However, each system (and each device, such as a telephone or answering machine) that you connect to the telephone line draws power from the line. We refer to this power draw as the device’s ringer equivalence number or REN. The REN is shown on a label on the bottom of the system.

If this happens, the phone company attempts to notify you in advance.
