UL Certification

Your industry, our focus

End-to-end testing & certification services enabling you to demonstrate that your products are compliant with the applicable UL standards.

Achieving electrical product safety compliance in the United States can be a challenge as requirements are specified at the federal and local level. Federal law governs electrical equipment utilized in the workplace, while local building code officials enforce local standards ordinances and laws pertinent to a given occupancy.

On the federal level, the U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires various types of products, devices, assemblies, or systems that are used in the workplace, to be tested and certified by a third-party organization designated as a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratories (NRTL).

Test standards that have been determined to be appropriate for use under OSHA’s NRTL Program include ANSI, IEEE, NEMA, CSA, and UL standards. Because of their involvement in standard writing, the need for UL approvals for product safety compliance is actually a common misconception in the industry. While UL does coordinate standards writing, they are only one of several NRTLs for testing and certification.

30 years ago, MET Labs was recognized by OSHA as the first NRTL and is one of the certification industry’s most widely known and respected marks (MET Mark). MET can test your products to the relevant UL testing standards and accordingly certify under the NRTL program, demonstrating that your product complies with national product safety requirements.
