CTL = Committee of Testing Laboratories

See:  http://www.iecee.org/ctl/aboutctl.htm

"The Committee of Testing Laboratories is the technical branch of the IECEE
and the biggest forum of technical experts representing 336 CB Testing
Laboratories, located in 52 different Countries, and operating under the
responsibility of the relevant National Certification Bodies (NCBs) members
of the IECEE."

CTL addresses interpretation and process problems
and questions arising from IEC standards.

CTL decisions apply to all labs that participate in
the CB scheme, which is most of the world's safety
certification houses.
