§ 2.933   Change in identification of equipment.

   (a) A new application for certification shall be filed whenever there
   is a change in the FCC Identifier for the equipment with or without a
   change in design, circuitry or construction. However, a change in the
   model/type number or trade name performed in accordance with the
   provisions in § 2.924 of this chapter is not considered to be a change
   in identification and does not require additional authorization.

   (b) An application filed pursuant to paragraph (a) of this section
   where no change in design, circuitry or construction is involved, need
   not be accompanied by a resubmission of equipment or measurement or
   test data customarily required with a new application, unless
   specifically requested. In lieu thereof, the applicant shall attach a
   statement setting out:

   (1) The original identification used on the equipment prior to the
   change in identification.

   (2) The date of the original grant of the equipment authorization.

   (3) How the equipment bearing the modified identification differs from
   the original equipment.

   (4) Whether the original test results continue to be representative of
   and applicable to the equipment bearing the changed identification.

   (5) The photographs required by § 2.1033(b)(7) or (c)(12) showing the
   exterior appearance of the equipment, including the operating controls
   available to the user and the identification label. Photographs of the
   construction, the component placement on the chassis, and the chassis
   assembly are not required to be submitted unless specifically
   requested.

   (c) If the change in the FCC Identifier also involves a change in
   design or circuitry which falls outside the purview of a permissive
   change described in § 2.1043, a complete application shall be filed
   pursuant to § 2.911.
