The buyer is additionally advised that computerized telephone systems may be sensitive to electrical noise which is carried along the power circuits into the telephone switching equipment.

Our Agreement includes only those circuits which are connected to the telephone system for incoming and outgoing calls, as defined specifically on our quotation page, and which the buyer has made known to us. Extra charges to the buyer from the common carrier for rush work or overtime caused by failure to report to us the existence of these other circuits will be the responsibility of the buyer. These charges, and charges for jacks to accommodate these circuits, are billed from the common carrier direct to the buyer.
CONDUIT:
