Steps

  1. Identify the applicable 524 CMR chapter for the specific equipment type (the code is organized by chapter/part per equipment class, e.g. 524 CMR 10.00 covers permits/inspection of existing elevators undergoing alteration).
  2. Ensure the inspection is performed or witnessed by a Massachusetts-licensed state elevator inspector as identified under 524 CMR 8.01(2).
  3. For equipment being installed, relocated, or altered, confirm whether a limited certificate of compliance (valid up to 30 days) is needed to permit interim use.
  4. Confirm the current standard operating certificate renewal interval directly against the specific 524 CMR chapter text on mass.gov — this session could not verify a single fixed renewal period from a primary source, so treat any stated interval as provisional.
  5. Verify the certificate is properly posted/installed per the applicable chapter before relying on it as current.
