| How ever if a company does not follow the standard and causes interference
| to the phone network  they can be cited  by fcc if it is an extrardianry
| case  or if a fire or burg  system  fails to properly sieze a phone line
and
| a system failure results because signal did not go out during fire
| etc.becuse the standard was not folowed
| the civil liabilty part comes in and when it is taken to court these
| standards are cited as cause of the failure .
| and it is part of what a jury conciders in determining a verdict.and then
| damages if warranted.
|
| Same thing goes when i investigate fire or fire caused failure I follow
| NFPA921 in how i should conduct an investigation using the scientific
| method. this is the standard used in courts to insure a proper fire
| investigation takes place.
