What is a Category 5 Inspection?

Depending on the type of device, some also require a Category 5 full load inspection test every five years. Category 5 tests are due at the end of the month in which they were last performed.

For example, if a Category 5 report was last filed in March 2012, it would be due again at the end of March 2017. When Category 1 and Category 5 tests line up for a device, owners may choose to perform both types of inspections at the same time and file the results on the same ELV3 form.
