Ensure product safety by following first-time NFPA 791: Recommended Practice and Procedures for Unlabeled Electrical Equipment Evaluation.

To provide electrical safety, unlabeled electrical equipment is evaluated for compliance with nationally recognized standards. First-time NFPA 791: Recommended Practice and Procedures for Unlabeled Electrical Equipment Evaluation addresses the process in a consistent and reliable manner, thereby facilitating acceptance of results.

This newly created document provides Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJs) with industry approved recommended practices and procedures for:
