ARSD 20:44:22:05. Special approval of state electrical inspector

The state electrical inspector may grant special approval of electrical equipment as machinery if no standard has been prepared or adopted to which they should conform. Special approval applies only to the specific electrical equipment approved and not to the line as manufactured, stored, sold, installed, or attached and may be granted only for electrical equipment as designated by the owner as machinery which, in the opinion of the owner, is safe for the use intended. All special approvals must first be authorized by the commission. The state or any of its political subdivisions does not assume any liability for damage or injury to persons or property because of the use of such electrical equipment designated as machinery.
