Background:

The Conformity Assessment Policy Coordination Committee (CAPCC) of the US National Committee of IEC has published a set of harmonized USNC Conformity Assessment Mirror Committee Operating Procedures (US CA 01) in 2019.

Each CA system committee (IECEE, IECEx, IECQ and IECRE) are required to publish a Supplement to US CA 01 stating any specific exceptions to the harmonized rules.

The major exception in the USNC/IECRE Supplement is the definition of Sector Groups for each RE technology.  There are also minor exceptions relating to Resource Experts and the Immediate Past Chair.

Action:

The committee is requested to approve the draft Supplement.  If you wish to suggest any changes to the document, please contact the secretary by email ([email protected]).
