Let me add my 2cents worth. I have to compete with UL and certainly think that CE marked products must be accepted by US authorities having jurisdiction (as these should be eliminated as well, I had trouble with the Hayward City inspector at one time)? Maybe they have something similar to the Hayward city inspectors in France (and about 20 other countries I know of), how do they feel about UL, in France? And if standards, why US standards, why not the other way around, the US adapting international standards (with one or two national deviations)? I for one am glad that I can still find VDE or SEV etc. approved components, maybe these approvals are not perfect but I am sure I have a good defense built up should the unthinkable occur. We make sure.
