The inspector must abide by the certifications
approved by the local building/electrical code
jurisdiction.
It would be more accurate to substitute "local
jurisdiction" for "inspector."
OSHA NRTL and local code processes are independent
of each other. I agree that it would be prudent
of the local jurisdiction to accept OSHA NRTLs
rather than establish other criteria which might
exclude one or more NRTLs.
I believe TUV-R has indeed applied for acceptance
in most or all local jurisictions. (Don't rely
on my belief.)
Best regards,
Rich
