The UL Mark, provided by Underwriters Laboratories, is the most widely recognized symbol in the US for electrical devices. Products bearing the UL mark indicate that a manufacturer has taken the initiative to have a technically competent third party testing facility to perform a variety of product safety tests according to recognized standards. Manufacturers voluntarily submit their devices to a team of engineers who are specialists in product safety standards at one of the UL facilities.

Periodic on-site checks performed by UL, assure that a manufacturer maintains a high level of quality and performance standards. For the consumer, the mark provides a level of confidence, demonstrating that the products have been tested and comply with all relevant safety standards in accordance with the use of that particular product.
