What should be done if the adopted installation standard does not require testing?

• A. The certificate is void
• B. Testing must be performed by a third party
• C. No documentation is required
• D. All other sections except the testing portion must still be completed

Answer: (D)

When a standard doesn’t require testing, you still must complete the rest of the installation documentation. Completing all sections except the testing portion ensures there is a full, auditable record of what was installed, what materials were used, how the system was designed and installed, and that inspections and approvals can be properly addressed. The absence of a required test doesn’t relieve you of documenting these other elements, and leaving them blank can create gaps that raise compliance or maintenance issues later. So, the right approach is to finish all non-testing sections to keep the project fully documented and verifiable, even if testing isn’t mandated by the adopted standard.
