APPENDIX D - MANUFACTURER' S RESPONSIBILITIES, CONSTRUCTION CONSIDERATIONS, AND

REQUIREMENTS FOR FACTORY TESTS

The Follow-Up Service Procedure covering the product is loaned to the

manufacturer and constitutes the basis on which the product is judged for
compliance with the applicable requirements.

MANUFACTURER' S RESPONSIBILITIES

The manufacturer's responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

Control of the UL Mark - Restrict the use of markings that reference UL (either
directly by use of the name, an abbreviation of it, or the UL symbol,
Classification Mark or Recognized Component Mark, or indirectly by means of
agreed-upon markings that are understood to indicate acceptance by UL) to those
products that are found by the manufacturer's own inspection to comply with the
Follow-Up Service Procedure description. Use of such markings is further limited
by the agreements that have been executed by the Subscriber and UL. Confine the
application of markings referencing UL to the location or locations authorized
in these Appendix Pages or the Follow-Up Service Procedure.

Access to Factory - During hours in which the factory is in operation, provide

the Field Representative with free access to any portion of the premises where
the product or components thereof are being fabricated, processed, finished or
stored, and to the test area assigned for the Field Representative's use. The
Field Representative shall be permitted to inspect and subject to prescribed
tests, prior to shipment, any product bearing or intended to bear markings
referencing UL.

Production-Line Tests - Conduct the Factory Tests detailed in Appendix D.

Required Records - Maintain records of test performance. The records shall

include the model or catalog designation of the product, the date of production,
the tests performed, number of units tested, test results and action taken on
rejections. Records for test performance shall be retained for six (6) months
and shall be readily available for review by the Field Representative.

Test Equipment and Personnel - Provide, at a convenient location, all required

test equipment and facilities and any required personnel for conducting all
tests that are to be performed at the factory. These shall be available when
needed so that the inspection work can proceed without undue delay.

APPENDIX D Page 2 Issued: 1984-12-21
Revised: 2007-10-19

COPPER JACKETED STEEL GROUND RODS

[GROUNDING AND BONDING EQUIPMENT (KDER)]

Test Equipment Calibration - Determine that required test equipment is

functioning properly daily, and have it calibrated at least annually, or
whenever it has been subject to abuse (such as being dropped or struck with an
object) or its accuracy is questionable. The test equipment and instruments
shall be calibrated either by the manufacturer or by an outside laboratory. In
either case, it shall be calibrated by comparison with a standard that is
traceable to the applicable National Standard. A letter from the outside
laboratory or from an off-site manufacturer's calibration lab stating that their
lab standards are directly traceable to their country's National Standard and
outlining their traceability pathway is considered adequate proof of
traceability. For in-house calibrations, the Standard (weight and gauge blocks,
etc.) used shall be calibrated every three years, or whenever the Standard has
been subject to some form of abuse that may affect the Standard’s fitness for
use. The Standard shall be stored to protect it from damage or deterioration per
the Standard manufacturer’s recommendations. Records of the calibration of the
test equipment and Standard(s) shall be maintained until the next required
calibration is completed and recorded, and shall be readily available for review
by the Field Representative.

CONSTRUCTION CONSIDERATIONS

The manufacturer shall verify compliance with the applicable descriptions and
requirements contained in this Procedure. Consideration shall also be given to
the general requirements described below, which also apply to products covered
in this Procedure. It is the manufacturers responsibility to assure that
production complies with these requirements.

Markings – Required information shall be legibly marked on the product, in

the manner and minimum height specified.

Special requirements that may also apply to some or all of the products covered
by this Procedure include the following:

Usage Markings - There shall be no marking in the instruction manual, or

on the carton or package that is, or could be construed to be, in conflict with
or an extension of the use covered in the Procedure.

Revised: 2007-10-19

COPPER JACKETED STEEL GROUND RODS

[GROUNDING AND BONDING EQUIPMENT (KDER)]

MANUFACTURER’S PERIODIC PRODUCTION-LINE TEST PROGRAM

The following production-line tests and examinations shall be conducted on

product covered by this Procedure.

a) The copper thickness test shall be conducted on five rods from each
4000 ft of finished rods (500 finished 8 ft rods).

b) The bending test and adherence tests shall be conducted once per month
on one sample of each rod diameter produced.

A. COPPER THICKNESS TEST

Test Method

The minimum thickness of the copper jacket shall be determined using the
manufacturer's equipment as noted in App. D.

Since jacket thickness may vary along the length and/or around the circumference
of the ground rod, the thickness measurement shall be made at a suitable number
of points along and around the rod to assure that the point of minimum thickness
has been determined.

Note: When making this thickness determination, portions of the rod within 1 in. (25.4 mm) of each
end and metal stamped markings are to be disregarded.

Basis For Acceptability

The copper thickness shall not be less than 0.010 in. (0.254 mm) plus the
tolerance of the thickness measuring equipment. For example, if the tolerance of
the thickness measuring equipment is ±5 percent, the minimum acceptable
thickness measured shall be 0.0105 in. (0.2667 mm).

Revised: 2007-10-19

COPPER JACKETED STEEL GROUND RODS

[GROUNDING AND BONDING EQUIPMENT (KDER)]

B. ADHERENCE TEST

Test Method

An 18 in. length of rod with one end cut to a 45° point shall be driven between
two steel clamping plates or the jaws of a vise set 0.04 in. (1.016 mm) less
than the diameter of the rod, so as to shear off sufficient metal to expose the
bond between the copper jacket and rod. If a vice is used for this test, the
vice jaws shall be held fixed to prevent movement during the test.

Basis for Acceptability

Peeling of the copper jacket by the steel plates or the jaws of the vise is
acceptable, but there shall be no other evidence of separation of the copper
jacket from the steel core.

C. BENDING TEST

Test Method

Samples of the ground rods shall be held rigidly in a clamp or vise and the free
end bent by applying a force perpendicular to the rod at a distance 40 times the
diameter of the rod from a point where the rod is held until the rod is
permanently bent through a 30° angle.

Basis for Acceptability

There shall be no cracking of the copper jacket.

[GROUNDING AND BONDING EQUIPMENT (KDER)]

Procedure In Case of Nonconforming Results

When nonconformance is encountered during the manufacturer's test and

inspection program, the manufacturer shall follow the procedure detailed
below:

a. Reject the lot and hold production since last acceptable sample.

b. Perform analysis to determine root cause of nonconformance,

corrective action to be taken, and lots affected.

c. Implement an appropriate corrective action.

d. Randomly select a minimum of 10 verification samples of each size

for retest of nonconforming parameters.

e. If all verification samples pass, the lot may be accepted.

f. If any verification sample does not conform, all reference to UL

shall either be removed from the affected production, the production
scrapped entirely or, the manufacturer may notify the Field
Representative of the nonconformance and a Special Investigation
shall be initiated by the manufacturer. The Special Investigation
shall be concluded and the segregated production may bear the UL
Listing Mark only when, in the judgment of UL, the conditions
responsible for the Special Investigation have been corrected.
