(b) Information submitted pursuant to paragraph (a) of this section
shall completely identify the specific standard or measurement
procedure used.
(c) In the case of equipment requiring measurement procedures not
specified in the references set forth in paragraphs (a)(1) and (2) of
this section, the applicant shall submit a detailed description of the
measurement procedures actually used.
(d) A listing of the test equipment used shall be submitted.

Sec. 2.948 Description of measurement facilities.
(a) Each party making measurements of equipment that is subject to
an equipment authorization under part 15 or part 18 of this chapter,
regardless of whether the measurements are filed with the Commission or
kept on file by the party responsible for compliance of equipment
marketed within the U.S. or its possessions, shall compile a
description of the measurement facilities employed.
(1) If the measured equipment is subject to the verification
procedure, the description of the measurement facilities shall be
retained by the party responsible for verification of the equipment.
(i) If the equipment is verified through measurements performed by
an independent laboratory, it is acceptable for the party responsible
for verification of the equipment to rely upon the description of the
measurement facilities retained by or placed on file with the
Commission by that laboratory. In this situation, the party responsible
for verification of the equipment is not required to retain a duplicate
copy of the description of the measurement facilities.
(ii) If the equipment is verified based on measurements performed
at the installation site of the equipment, no specific site calibration
data is required. It is acceptable to retain the description of the
measurement facilities at the site at which the measurements were
performed.
(2) If the equipment is to be authorized by the Commission under
the certification or the notification procedure, the description of the
measurement facilities shall be filed with the Commission's laboratory
in Columbia, Maryland. The data describing the measurement facilities
need only be filed once but must be updated as changes are made to the
measurement facilities or as otherwise described in this section. At
least every three years, the organization responsible for filing the
data with the Commission
[[Page 37597]]
shall certify that the data on file is current.
(b) The description shall contain the following information:
(1) Location of the test site.
(2) Physical description of the test site accompanied by
photographs of size A4 (21 cm x 29.7 cm) or 8 x 10 inches (20.3 cm x
25.4 cm). Smaller photographs may be used if they clearly show the
details of the test site and are mounted on full size sheets of paper.
(3) A drawing showing the dimensions of the site, physical layout
of all supporting structures, and all structures within 5 times the
distance between the measuring antenna and the device being measured.
(4) Description of structures used to support the device being
measured and the test instrumentation.
(5) List of measuring equipment used.
(6) Information concerning the calibration of the measuring
equipment, i.e., the date the equipment was last calibrated and how
often the equipment is calibrated.
(7) If desired, a statement as to whether the test site is
available to do measurement services for the public on a fee basis.
(8) A plot of site attenuation data.
(i) For a measurement facility that will be used for testing
radiated emissions from a digital device on or after May 1, 1994, or
for testing intentional and other unintentional radiators authorized
under part 15 of the rules on or after June 1, 1995, the site
attenuation data shall be taken pursuant to the procedures contained in
Sections 5.4.6 through 5.5 of the following procedure:
