With screw connections, or jelly crimps?

So long as you use proper CW1308 cable, make sure you don't short
anything out while doing it and make a neat job you should be fine,
taking a photo before can be helpful.

But remember that BT put 1kV into the phone cable at random intervals to
discourage DIY.

Easily dealt with , before commencing work contact the operator give
them a number and ask to reverse the charges.
