RE: Different shades of UL
Well, just briefly. The backwards UR is a component recognition. It can be used in a end unit only if the conditions of acceptability that are placed in the UL report are met. E. G. Power supplies would have obvious things like the end use product must provide and adequate fire enclosure etc. Less obvious might be the requirement for a specific amount of airflow across the power supply itself - this one can bite the unwary. The UL in a circle indicates a Listed product - those products that are fully ready for a user. Plug it in and go. A computer for example. (Inside of which is probably a recognized power supply - which is now properly housed and cooled) Then there is the ULc which means its a listed product and evaluated to bi-national standards for the US and Canada. (CSA has a similar mark) There are actually other forms of markings as well, the words Underwriters Listed for example could be used instead of the UL in a circle thing. Then there are Classified items such as sheet rock, roofing materials etc. Haven't a clue what that marking looks like. I suppose there are variants that I haven't mentioned but these are the essentials to your question I believe.

RE: Different shades of UL
A very quick and basic summary: Very roughly speaking, the UL marks can be interpretted as follows. (OK there are pages and pages of jargon attached to each but the quick messy answers are): the UL, UL listed and CUL listed products are those that have been tested at a UL test facility and passed the relevant applicable product tests (safety) for such a device. The CUL denotes listing is acceptable to UL and harmonised Canadian standards. The list info and file will outline the standard applied (maybe UL1950 / UL60950) and models of the equipment covered. Such listed devices are manufactured at UL inspected factory facilities. The mirror image logo is applied to components and parts for which UL have a manufacturing scheme. This means parts marked with the logo have been tested using UL inspected methods and under a UL checked quality system. This could be on a cable such a a VW-1 rated cord or a PCB with V0 Rating etc. Adopting logo marked parts for use in a UL listed product makes for easier tracability of critical components. There is also a UL listed Accessory which is for devices intended to be installed in a host (like a card for a PC). This is like the UL, CUL mark but requires installation instructions as part of the assessment.

Re: Different shades of UL
Chris, The RU is the Recognized mark. It is applicable to products that are incomplete in construction features or limited performance capabilities so as not to warrant their acceptability as a field installed component. This mark does not look like a UL mark because it is not for public or retail use. If this mark is displayed on a retail advertisement or package it is not proper use of the mark. UL in a circle is the Listing Mark. It is authorized on products that comply with the requirements of UL. UL in a Circle with a C at the lower right signifies products that have been tested by UL to the Canadian requirements. Of course UL in a circle with US at the lower left and C at the lower right signifies products that have been tested by UL to the UL requirements and the Canadian requirements. UL in a circle with the word Classified around the top of the circle signifies products that are classified with respect to: a: properties of the product b: A limited spectrum of hazards to life or property c: suitability for certain uses or d: other conditions. Note: there are other, little used, marks with the words Underwriters Laboratories written out that also mean Listed Lee Schmitz Consultant --- This message is from the IEEE EMC Society Product Safety Technical Committee emc-pstc discussion list.

RE: Different shades of UL
try this Chris. It'll explain all. http://www.ul.com/mark/index.html John Juhasz Fiber Options Bohemia, NY -Original Message- From: Chris Maxwell [mailto:chris.maxw...@nettest.com] Sent: Friday, February 22, 2002 9:40 AM To: EMC-PSTC Internet Forum Subject: Different shades of UL Hi all, I know that this has been covered before. But please indulge my ignorance. There are many different forms of UL marks, each with subtle differences. There is the UL in a circle. There is also the mirror lettered RU. There are also some subscripts denoting approval for Canada as well. There may be some other variations that I can't remember. Anyone care to blow a few minutes on a Friday afternoon to explain which symbol means what?
