that are covered in individual requirements that are separate from this Standard.
1.4 In the following text, a requirement that applies to one type of equipment coming within its scope (percolators, and the like) will be so identified by a specific
reference in that requirement to the type of equipment involved. In the absence of such specific reference or if the term "appliance" is employed, it is to be understood
that the requirement applies to all of the types of equipment covered by the Standard.
1.5 A product that contains features, characteristics, components, materials, or systems new or different from those covered by the requirements in this standard, and
that involves a risk of fire or of electric shock or injury to persons shall be evaluated using appropriate additional component and end-product requirements to
maintain the level of safety as originally anticipated by the intent of this standard. A product whose features, characteristics, components, materials, or systems conflict
with specific requirements or provisions of this standard does not comply with this standard. Revision of requirements shall be proposed and adopted in conformance
with the methods employed for development, revision, and implementation of this standard.
