Steps

  1. Go to fccchr.usc.edu/list.html and download the current approved-assemblies list in Excel, PDF, or web-app format
  2. Filter by assembly type (DC, RP, DCDA, DCDA-II, RPDA, RPDA-II, AVB, PVB, or SVB)
  3. Confirm manufacturer, model, size, and orientation match the physical assembly being specified or approved
  4. Check the approval date and the latest renewal date — approvals run for a 3-year period and are subject to renewal
  5. Cross-check against the specific local purveyor's own approved-products list, since purveyors often maintain a narrower subset of the full USC list
