I do not know about "All equipment", but AKOSH Program Directive 00-05 directly implements OSHA's NRTL by citing Instruction CPL 1-0.3; that is, any product for use in the Alaska workplace that is within the scope of 29CFR1910 shall have been assessed by an NRTL.
Also, I think that some members of this group may be interested in OSHA Instruction STP 2-1.147A.
