You can get NOM exemption by meeting certain criteria
for specialized equipment.
Fast microprocessors,used in special places ( CO's) and not touched
by non-technical people.

this does not give you a NOM mark, but you get a letter
stating its OK to ship into Mexico based on its specialized application.
