12、NSI C82.6-2015 2015 National Electrical Manufacturers Association i AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD Approval of an American National Standards Institute, Inc. (ANSI) standard requires verification by ANSI that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by t
13、he standards developer. An American National Standard implies a consensus of those substantially concerned with its scope and provisions. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected i
14、nterests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered and that a concerted effort be made toward their resolution. The existence of an American National Standard does not in any respect pr
15、eclude anyone, whether s/he has approved the standard or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standards. It is intended as a guide to aid the manufacturer, the consumer, and the general public. The American National Standar
16、ds Institute, Inc., does not develop standards and will in no circumstances give an interpretation of any American National Standard. Moreover, no person shall have the right or authority to issue an interpretation of an American National Standard in the name of the American National Standards Insti
17、tute, Inc. Requests for interpretations should be addressed to the Committee Secretariat referred to on the title page. CAUTION NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at any time. The procedures of the American National Standards Institute, Inc., require that action be t
18、aken periodically to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw this standard.
