 DISCLAIMER 

Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of this document. 

However, in case of discrepancies, records of Technical Standards 

Committee “A" are the authoritative source.
PREFACE 

This list supersedes all preceding issues including revisions. Revised sheets reflecting changes in the list will be issued 

quarterly and should be inserted in order to keep your copy up to date. 

The items shown in this publication include material and equipment for transmission and distribution facilities. Items not 

listed include office equipment, tools and work equipment, items of electric general plant and consumer owned wiring 

facilities. The listings apply only to new items of material and equipment and not to used items. 

In addition to items accepted on a general basis, this list also includes items accepted on a conditional basis. As one of 

the conditions in the acceptance of an item on a conditional basis, contractors are required to obtain the borrower’s 

concurrence prior to its use. 

The inclusion of an item in this list does not indicate that item’s manufacturer or its principals have not been debarred, 

suspended, proposed for debarment, declared ineligible or voluntarily excluded pursuant to Executive Order 12549, 

Debarment or Suspension, or any rules or regulations issued thereunder, including 7 CFR Part 3017 (“Debarment 

Regulations”). Therefore, borrowers must comply with the requirements imposed by the Debarment Regulations before 

entering into any “covered transaction”, as defined by 7 CFR Part 3017, involving any item on this list. 

The acceptance of an additional item or the deletion of an existing item is a function of the Technical Standards 

Committees. Any manufacturer desiring to have a new item placed on the list, or any user believing an existing item 

should be removed from the list, is invited to submit the matter to the Committees. Any communication calling attention to 

an error or omission in the list, such as a wrong catalog number, an obsolete item, etc., will be appreciated. All
