(3) The Commission may require an applicant to submit a sample unit for measurement at the Commission’s laboratory or at any other place as the Commission may specify.
(4) Where the applicant believes that shipment of a sample to the Commission’s laboratory is impractical because of the size or weight of the equipment, the power requirement or for any other reason, the applicant may submit a written statement explaining why the shipment is impractical and should not be required.
(5) The Commission may from time to time request a party responsible for any equipment, to submit the equipment to determine the extent to which subsequent production of the equipment continues to comply with the data filed by an applicant or data kept on file with that party, subject to a declaration of conformity.
(6) Any measurement procedure acceptable to the Commission may be used to prepare data demonstrating compliance.
(7) Information on measurement submitted to the Commission shall identify the specific standard or measurement procedure used.
(8) A party making measurements of equipment that is subject to equipment authorization, whether the measurements are filed with the Commission or kept on file by the party responsible for the compliance of the equipment, shall compile a description of the measurement facilities employed.
(9) A description of measurement facilities shall contain—
(a)the location of a test site;
(b)physical description of a test site, accompanied by photographs;
(c)a drawing showing the dimensions of a test site, the physical layout of all supporting structures and all structures within five times the distance between a measuring antenna and a device which is measured;
(d) a description of structures used to support a device which is measured and the test instrumentation;
(e) a list of measuring equipment used;
(f) information concerning the calibration of the measuring equipment, including the date the equipment was last calibrated and how often the equipment is calibrated;
(g)where desired, a statement on whether a test site is available to do measurement services for the public at a fee.
(10) Each equipment covered in an application for equipment authorisation shall bear a name plate or label with a Commission identifier.
(11) A name-plate or label shall be permanently affixed to an equipment and shall be readily visible to a purchaser at the time of purchase.
(12) A grant of equipment authorisation is valid only where the Commission identifier is permanently affixed to the device and remains effective until it is revoked, withdrawn, rescinded, surrendered, or where a termination date is specified by the Commission.
(13) A grantee of equipment authorisation shall be responsible to the Commission, for any equipment produced using the authorisation.
(14) Certification attaches to any equipment subsequently marketed by an authorised person, which is identical to the tested sample
