Reviewers are also asked to look for protected intellectual property in the draft standard. ESTA and Accredited Standards Committee E1 do not intend to adopt any standard that requires the use of protected intellectual property, unless that property is required for technical reasons and can be licensed and used by anyone without prejudice or preference for a reasonable fee. Any protected intellectual property in the document should be pointed out in the comments.
BSR E1.19 is a project of the Electrical Power Working Group, which is seeking more members in the interest categories of Dealer/Rental Company and User. Parties that sell or rent power distribution equipment, or that use this equipment, and that are willing to attend meetings to work on standards related to the use of electrical power distribution products, are invited to join the working group.
Membership of ESTA is not a requirement - the general purpose working group membership application is available from the ESTA website at or from the Technical Standards Manager. Links on the ESTA website will also lead to information about current working group's projects.
