Annex NAA of UL60950-1, clause 4.7.3.1 has an additional requirement for 
equipment installed in "space used for environmental air", such as may be found 
in ceiling voids.

Requirement
Equipment evaluated for installation in space used for environmental air as 
described in Section 300-22(C) of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/ NFPA 70, 
and Sections 2-128, 12-010(3) and 12-100 of the Canadian Electrical Code,  Part 
1, CSA C22.1 shall be marked or provided with installation instructions 
indicating suitability for installation in such locations.
Equipment that is not evaluated for installation in areas covered by Section 
300-22(C) of the National Electrical Code, and Sections 2-128, 12-010(3) and 
12-100 of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, CSA C22.1 shall not be provided 
with this marking, nor shall its installation instructions describe such 
installation.


Labelling
Suitable for use in environmental air space in accordance with Section 
300-22(C) of the National Electrical Code, and Sections 2-128, 12-010(3) and 
12-100 of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, CSA C22.1.

Now, non-metallic enclosures of such equipment have to assessed against UL2043 
but metallic enclosures are exempt from UL2043, so:

  *   How would a unit with a metallic enclosure be evaluated - is it by 
inspection?
  *   Who much do the assessment - can it be the manufacturer, or must it be 
someone acceptable to local AHJ (e.g. an NRTL)
