Brian is 100% correct in that NRTL's are within their right to reject certifications and or test reports from other NRTL labs.
There is an NRTL here in the U.S. that has strict requirements about accepting component approvals from other NRTL's. They may accept other NRTL approvals but they have their own criteria on what is required in this case. -----Original Message----- From: John Woodgate [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, September 03, 2014 5:27 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [PSES] Battery certification issue In message <f0bbd00eaeb04a47b2cd56eace4fb...@blupr02mb116.namprd02.prod.outlook.com> , dated Wed, 3 Sep 2014, Brian Oconnell <[email protected]> writes: > There is no mutual recognition requirement among NRTLs, That seems to be a recipe for chaos.
