Public Comment on NEMA Standards

​​NEMA technical committees typically review NEMA Standards no later than every five years to determine whether a NEMA Standard should be revised, reaffirmed or rescinded.  

During the review process, NEMA welcomes comments from persons --- whether they are a user of the Standard, or someone who is directly or materially interested in the standard because they make or use the product covered by the NEMA Standard, or have a general interest in the subject-matter of the NEMA Standard --- about the current text of the document and suggestions for adding or modifying content that might be taken into consideration.

This web page identifies the NEMA Standards that are currently under review this year and contact information with the appropriate NEMA Staff person who can receive public comments and answer questions.

Comments and questions can be submitted through our web-based contact mechanism on this website.​
