Adding/Removing a Line 6
Use this procedure to add a line to or remove a line from the system.
Planning Guidelines 6
If you are adding a new line and need to order a module to connect the line,
coordinate the installation and connection dates to ensure that the new module is
installed before the line is connected to the system.
