Whether there are any regulations or not, it is simply common sense to ensure that there are enough phones capable of calling 911 during a power outage. And I don't mean just ONE phone that no-one knows where it is, but ENOUGH. Preferably labelled 'Emergency telephone'. It's 'sort-of' personal responsibility, maybe 'collegiate responsibility', and it's about not needing a regulation to authorise (or in some cases, prohibit!) the exercise of common sense. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. The good news is that nothing is compulsory. The bad news is that everything is prohibited. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk Also see http://www.isce.org.uk This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
