ANSI/KCMA A161.1 Standard In accordance with the procedures set by ANSI for the revision of standards, KCMA has initiated the canvass balloting process for the KCMA A161.1 standard. KCMA has also sent a request to ANSI to publish a notice in Standards Action that the KCMA A161.1 standard is under review and KCMA is soliciting public comment on. The following ANSI M standards are available in paper copy in the Noble Library on the Tempe Campus, unless noted otherwise. Standards housed in Noble are 'Library use only' and are not available for checkout. M 2.1 1964 (Safety Rules for Installing and Using Electrical Equipment In and About Coal Mines ).
