I have the main form "Site", has many :equipments. In the Site form I add equipment to the form dynamically to associate it to the site.
I do not necessarily need to validate the equipment fields on the form submission unless a checkbox is checked on the "Site" form stating everything is good. Basically I only need to validate the equipment under specific case on the site model.
