John, Since product B is an accessory for use with UL Listed Product A, then I would submit product B to UL for accessory Listing for use with Product A. This is a very wise thing to do, especially if there were any questions by local inspectors or by the judge in case of a product liabilility lawsuit.
Accessory Listing product B should be no problem at all. UL might ask you to throw in an instruction leaflet on how to install accessory B properly and that this must be done by qualified personnel. In regards to the UL Listing Mark, it is the same as the one you have on the product A except for the element ACCESSORY LISTED instead of LISTED adjacent to the UL logo. Being a small unit, UL also allows you to put all the required markings and UL logo on the packaging rather than on the product.

Manufacturer A sells a complete, fully approved (CE, FCC Part 15, UL, etc) product (product A) Manufacturer B makes a device (product B) that will plug into a connector in product A (actually inside product A's enclosure - like a 'daughter' module) as a value added feature. There are no external interfaces on product B, and it is not accessible unless product A is totally dismantled. Product B is intended/sold only for use with product A, and is otherwise useless. The two products are sold independent of each other by the manufacturers to 'dealer/installers'. When the dealer/installer sells/installs product A, he can offer product B as an option. What are the regulatory requirements/manufacturer's responsibilities for product B? (est. 2-3 inches square, UL 94V-0 printed circuit board, tens of mA 12V DC, no external interfaces. On-board clock). Thoughts? John A. Juhasz GE Interlogix Fiber Options Div.
