Derate required load calcs signed by EE, Requirements for electronic signing and sealing of plans and documents are set forth by the regulations of the appropriate professional board of licensing. The ePermit system allows for documents to be signed and sealed by two methods. Electronic Sign and Sea The “electronic sign and seal method utilizes the esign process that is built into the ePermit system. This method is free, but requires a one page signature document to be printed and manually signed and sealed by the registered professional(s). The signature document(s) must be submitted in original form to conform with the professional licensing regulations. Digital Sign and Seal The digital sign and seal method requires purchasing a subscription from a third party digital signature provider, such as Globalsign and Verisign. When we receive a document that has been signed and sealed digitally, we can instantly confirm the documents validity which allows for immediate processing. The advantage of digital sign and seal is it eliminates the need for a paper document to be produced and distributed, allowing for 100% paperless and streamlined processing. Provide flashing documentation along with fire classification.
