Demarc › Manufacturer programs › Hubbell
Hubbell's form is short and specific. The detail that catches installers: it wants the original raw tester files and says PDFs will not be accepted.

| Where | By email to the address on the form, or upload to a file-sharing site and email the link for large files. Forms are on Hubbell's Premise Wiring site under Mission Critical Installer, Warranty Forms.

What the public documents do not say
- The form states no submission deadline and no link-versus-channel rule.

What Demarc does for this program
Demarc prepares the package; you submit it through Hubbell warranty desk (its registration form directs submission by email or a file-sharing link). For this program the Demarc warranty kit checks:
- Hubbell installer ID
- Complete project + end-user contact information (Hubbell: incomplete information gets the documents refused)
- 100% passing certification test results (every link PASS)
- Every tester inside its 1 year calibration on the test date
- Copper test configuration chosen on the project (Hubbell publishes no rule); fiber reference method recorded where known
- Patch-panel / cable schedule (link-by-link record)
- Bill of materials — Hubbell components
- As-built drawing / floor plan
Deadline: no deadline published by Hubbell; check your RSP agreement. Demarc shows no countdown for Hubbell.
Copper test configuration in Demarc's kit for Hubbell.
Hubbell's public documents state no permanent-link or channel rule, so the kit does not assume one: you choose the configuration you tested on the project, the kit checks every copper result against that choice, and it tells you to confirm it with Hubbell.
