Sec.  1505.51  Hot surfaces.

    (a) Test probe. Section 1505.6(g)(2) defines accessibility, for 
certain paragraphs, as the ability to reach a heated surface with a \1/
4\-inch-diameter rod 3 inches long. To test for accessibility using this 
test probe, it shall be inserted no more than 3 inches into any opening 
in the toy. Unless the probe contacts a surface within 3 inches of the 
plane of the toy's opening, that surface is not accessible.
    (b) Accessibility of Type C and C-marked surfaces. Under Sec.  
1505.6(g)(2) (iii) and (iv), touching by casual contact or without 
employing the aid of a common household tool shall be determined by use 
of the accessibility test probe described in Sec.  Sec.  1505.6(g)(2) and 
1505.51(a).
