If the component or sub-assembly used complies with this standard, the tests for the component or sub-assembly specified in the particular appliance standard in some cases will not need to be made in the particular appliance or assembly. Additional testing on a component or subassembly might be required. For example, if a control system is associated with the particular appliance control system, additional tests could potentially be necessary on the final appliance
