Steps

  1. Confirm which edition of A17.1/CSA B44 the AHJ has adopted, since MCP content requirements (post-2000 editions require a written plan for examining, testing, cleaning, lubricating, and adjusting components) can shift between editions
  2. Verify the MCP document is physically posted in the machine room, machinery space, or control room/space as required
  3. Confirm maintenance, repair, replacement, callback, oil-log, and Firefighters' Emergency Operation test records are being retained on-site and available for a minimum of five years
  4. Cross-check the specific AHJ's local amendments — some states/cities layer additional MCP filing or format requirements on top of the base ASME/CSA text
  5. When drafting or auditing an MCP, use it as a compliance checklist against 8.6.1.2.1/8.6.1.2.2 rather than treating a generic template as automatically sufficient for the adopted edition
