Hi Amund:

In the USA, the federal government workplace rules and most other
jurisdictions require certification by a NRTL.  Most certification houses
are NRTL.  Here is the current list of NRTLs:

https://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/nrtllist.html

All NRTLs are "approved" for the standards specified in their "scope of
recognition" list in the NRTL web site.  

For Canada, see:

https://canada.ul.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/11/2018/05/Acceptance-of-Elec
trical-Products-in-Canada-1.pdf

http://www.scc.ca/en/accreditation/product-process-and-service-certification
/directory-of-accredited-clients

The first document is by UL, and may have some bias.  The second is the list
of accredited certification houses.  


stay safe, and best regards,
Rich

Subject: [PSES] Electrical safety testing US and Canada ... Mandatory ?

Sorry for bringing up this issue again, but I have lost my history for all
previous IEEE mails  ...

I know (assume ...) that UL, CSA, FM and others are voluntary for showing
compliance.
But that is actually required by law in US and C?


Thanks!

Best regards
Amund
