This is a slightly older NEBS document, but I believe the requirement number hasn't changed.

RE: CFR requirements for the workplace
NRTL Listing is mandatory for most types of equipment. See the definition of 'acceptable below for those cases where NRTL Listing is not mandatory. This comes from 1910.399 Definitions Applicable to this Subpart. Acceptable. An installation or equipment is acceptable to the Assistant Secretary of Labor, and approved within the meaning of this Subpart S: (i) If it is accepted, or certified, or listed, or labeled, or otherwise determined to be safe by a nationally recognized testing laboratory; or (ii) With respect to an installation or equipment of a kind which no nationally recognized testing laboratory accepts, certifies, lists, labels, or determines to be safe, if it is inspected or tested by another Federal agency, or by a State, municipal, or other local authority responsible for enforcing occupational safety provisions of the National Electrical Code, and found in compliance with the provisions of the National Electrical Code as applied in this subpart; or (iii) With respect to custom-made equipment or related installations which are designed, fabricated for, and intended for use by a particular customer, if it is determined to be safe for its intended use by its manufacturer on the basis of test data which the employer keeps and makes available for inspection to the Assistant Secretary and his authorized representatives. Refer to 1910.7 for definition of nationally recognized testing laboratory.

RE: CFR requirements for the workplace
Patty, The requirements are located in 29 CFR Part 1910 Subpart S. Go to http://www.osha-slc.gov/OshStd_toc/OSHA_Std_toc_1910.html http://www.osha-slc.gov/OshStd_toc/OSHA_Std_toc_1910.html for a table of contents for part 1910. If you go down the list and click on 1910 Subpart S it will take you to a page with all of the requirements. If you then click on 1910.303 it will state that the equipment must be approved. If you then go back to the table of contents page and go to the bottom of the list and click on 1910.339 - Definitions applicable to this subpart, it will take you to the definitions page you will find a definition for approved. In this definition it talks about acceptable. If you then look at the definition of acceptable this is where it talks about NRTL approval. Hope this helps.
