We are working some responses to OSHA and would like to ask for some industry response from the Product Safety group (EMC welcome to respond too).
Just looking for a quick statement on the Value of using a Non-NRTL firm for testing and/or certification (Listing). Statement: Non-NRTL laboratories can provide "Listings" and publish the customers (thus "Listing") however, based OSHA law, NEC requirements, Retailer specification, and other MOU/MRA with Canada/EU, it would not seem to be a significant accomplishment if not an NRTL. In a quick paragraph, would you provide your opinion on the value of a Non-NRTL Listing Certification. Thanks Much Chris PS: Attached is a pdf from Richard Fairfax - OSHA's Director Directorate of Compliance Programs which states that Electrical products in the workplace must be Listed or Labeled by an NRTL to meet OSHA Law.
