The NRTL Program applies ONLY to end products used in the workplace.
It does not apply to component power supplies, plastic materials used
to make enclosures, transformers, switches etc. that are used to make
up end products. OSHA has no authority to regulate components (as they
typically can't be used in the workplace alone), and as a result,
components are not covered under the NRTL Program.
Even I can understand that.(;-) In Europe, most electrical safety
standards also apply to 'finished goods' only, but to all finished
goods, not just those used in the workplace but in the home and
everywhere else. However, there are some standards that can be applied
to sub-assemblies:
IEC 61204-7:2006 Low-voltage power supplies, d.c. output - Part 7:
Safety requirements
