Consideration of an item of material or equipment will be obtained by the sponsor through the submission of a written request in an original and five copies addressed to the Chairman, Technical Standards Committee “A” (Electric). The letter must include the catalog number or other identifying number or code as well as a description of the item.

In case of large, bulky or extremely heavy samples, the sponsor should contact the Chairman, Technical Standards Committee “A” (Electric), at the above address, before any sample is shipped.
