Hi all,
Regardless of the OSHA requirements already addressed within this list,
don't lose sight of the fact that there's "The Law of Economics" at play
here as well. I don't believe any major retailer (Walmart, Target, K-Mart,
Sears, etc.) will accept electrical/electronic products without NRTL
markings. Some even have their own test labs to further satisfy themselves
that the products are safe.
Additionally, in the workplace or other commercial structures, it's a
requirement of most insurance policies that electrical/electronic products
bear NRTL markings.
Best regards, Art
