All devices with a total EM number of 12 or more will be included in the programme and scheduled for inspections and preventive maintenance. During the acceptance testing, any new device will be included in the programme if the device has been previously evaluated and classified for inclusion. If the device has not been previously evaluated, a new device classifi cation will be created. It will be evaluated according to the outlined procedure to produce an EM number and will be included in the programme if appropriate. If included, a performance assurance inspection and preventive maintenance procedure will be written for the new device.
