Section 5 of UL60065: Subclause 5.1j Date code. It will also be required for WEEE.

But I do remember having to do so, but maybe its part of the agreements between the NRTL and the designer/manufacturer. I don't have any current UL listing agreements so I can't check but surely someone out there has them and could look.

The requirement, as in the General Product Safety Directive, is that the manufacturer or EU importer must have a means of identifying particular equipments about which the user might subseqently need to be warned of safety hazards (etc) or that might need to be traced and recalled. How you do it is up to you! Serial numbering and/or batch codes are a good idea to save you having to warn about/recall the whole product line if only a few known units are affected!

Can the date be in code form (code only known by the manufacturer) or must it be the actual year or month and year of manufacture, etc.? Thanks for your help. Richard I.
