Sec. 76.617  Responsibility for interference.

    Interference resulting from the use of cable system terminal 
equipment (including subscriber terminal, input selector switch and any 
other accessories) shall be the responsibility of the cable system 
terminal equipment operator in accordance with the provisions of part 15 
of this chapter: provided, however, that the operator of a cable system 
to which the cable system terminal equipment is connected shall be 
responsible for detecting and eliminating any signal leakage where that 
leakage would cause interference outside the subscriber's premises and/
or would cause the cable system to exceed the Part 76 signal leakage 
requirements. In cases where excessive signal leakage occurs, the cable 
operator shall be required only to discontinue service to the subscriber 
until the problem is corrected.
