10 CFR 50.49 Paragraph (f) requires each item of electrical equipment important to safety to be qualified by testing and/or analysis.

10 CFR 50.49 Paragraph (j) requires a record of the qualification documentation of EQ equipment to be maintained in an auditable form to permit verification that the equipment is qualified for its application and meets its performance requirements during an accident.
