Existence of such Specifica

3、tions and Publications shall not in any respect preclude any member or nonmember of ECIA from manufacturing or selling products not conforming to such Specifications and Publications, nor shall the existence of such Specifications and Publications preclude their voluntary use by those other than ECI

4、A members, whether the Specification is to be used either domestically or internationally. Specifications and Publications are adopted by ECIA in accordance with the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) patent policy. By such action, ECIA does not assume any liability to any patent owner, no

5、r does it assume any obligation whatever to parties adopting the Specification or Publication. This EIA Specification is considered to have International Standardization implications, but the International Electrotechnical Commission activity has not progressed to the point where a valid comparison

6、between the EIA Specification and the IEC document can be made. This Specification does not purport to address all safety problems associated with its use or all applicable regulatory requirements. It is the responsibility of the user of this Specification to establish appropriate safety and health

7、practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory limitations before its use.
