TABLE 1—LIST OF APPROPRIATE TEST

STANDARDS FOR INCLUSION IN

SGS’S NRTL SCOPE OF RECOGNITION—Continued 

Test 

standard Test standard title 

UL 65 .......... Wired Cabinets. 

UL 73 .......... Motor-Operated Appliances. 

UL 153 ........ Portable Electric Luminaires. 

UL 482 ........ Portable Sun/Heat Lamps. 

UL 507 ........ Electric Fans. 

UL 508A ..... Industrial Control Panels. 

UL 60335–1 Safety of Household and Similar Electrical Appliances, 

Part 1: General Requirements. 

OSHA’s recognition of any NRTL for 

a particular test standard is limited to 

equipment or materials for which OSHA 

standards require third-party testing and 

certification before using them in the 

workplace. Consequently, if a test 

standard also covers any products for 

which OSHA does not require such 

testing and certification, an NRTL’s 

scope of recognition does not include 

these products. 

The American National Standards 

Institute (ANSI) may approve the test 

standards listed above as American 

National Standards. However, for 

convenience, we may use the 

designation of the standards-developing 

organization for the standard as opposed 

to the ANSI designation. Under the 

NRTL Program’s policy (see OSHA 

Instruction CPL 1–0.3, Appendix C, 

paragraph XIV), any NRTL recognized 

for a particular test standard may use 

either the proprietary version of the test 

standard or the ANSI version of that 

standard. Contact ANSI to determine 

whether a test standard is currently 

ANSI-approved. 

A. Conditions 

In addition to those conditions 

already required by 29 CFR 1910.7, SGS 

must abide by the following conditions 

of the recognition: 

1. SGS must inform OSHA as soon as 

possible, in writing, of any change of 

ownership, facilities, or key personnel, 

and of any major change in its 

operations as an NRTL, and provide 

details of the change(s); 

2. SGS must meet all the terms of its 

recognition and comply with all OSHA 

policies pertaining to this recognition; 

and 

3. SGS must continue to meet the 

requirements for recognition, including 

all previously published conditions on 

SGS’s scope of recognition, in all areas 

for which it has recognition. 

Pursuant to the authority in 29 CFR 

1910.7, OSHA hereby expands the scope 

of recognition of SGS, subject to the 

limitation and conditions specified 

above.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Notice of Final Decision 

OSHA hereby gives notice of the 

expansion of the scope of recognition of 

Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL) as 

an NRTL. UL’s expansion covers the 

addition of two test standards to its 

scope of recognition. 

OSHA recognition of an NRTL 

signifies that the organization meets the 

requirements specified by 29 CFR 

1910.7. Recognition is an 

acknowledgment that the organization 

can perform independent safety testing 

and certification of the specific products 

covered within its scope of recognition, 

and is not a delegation or grant of 

government authority. As a result of 

recognition, employers may use 

products properly approved by the 

NRTL to meet OSHA standards that 

require testing and certification of the 

products. 

The Agency processes applications by 

an NRTL for initial recognition, or for 

expansion or renewal of this 

recognition, following requirements in 

Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. This 

appendix requires that the Agency 

publish two notices in the Federal 

Register in processing an application. In 

the first notice, OSHA announces the 

application and provides its preliminary 

finding and, in the second notice, the 

Agency provides its final decision on 

the application. These notices set forth 

the NRTL’s scope of recognition or 

modifications of that scope. OSHA 

maintains an informational Web page 

for each NRTL that details its scope of 

recognition. These pages are available 

from the Agency’s Web site at http://

www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/

index.html. 

UL submitted an application, dated 

April 3, 2014 (OSHA–2009–0025–0014, 

Exhibit 14–2—UL Application for 

Expansion of Test Standards), to expand 

its recognition to include two additional 

test standards. OSHA staff performed a 

comparability analysis and reviewed 

other pertinent information. OSHA did 

not perform any on-site reviews in 

relation to this application. 

OSHA published the preliminary 

notice announcing UL’s expansion 

application in the Federal Register on 

July 30, 2014 (79 FR 44201). The 

Agency requested comments by August 

14, 2014, but it received no comments 

in response to this notice. OSHA now is 

proceeding with this final notice to 

grant expansion of UL’s scope of 

recognition.

public documents pertaining to UL’s

or contact the Docket Office,

Administration, U.S. Department of 

Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue NW., 

Room N–2625, Washington, DC 20210. 

Docket No. OSHA–2009–0025 contains 

all materials in the record concerning 

UL’s recognition. 

II. Final Decision and Order 

OSHA staff examined UL’s expansion 

application, its capability to meet the 

requirements of the test standards, and 

other pertinent information. Based on 

its review of this evidence, OSHA finds 

that UL meets the requirements of 29 

CFR 1910.7 for expansion of its 

recognition, subject to the limitation 

and conditions listed below. OSHA, 

therefore, is proceeding with this final 

notice to grant UL’s scope of 

recognition. OSHA limits the expansion 

of UL’s recognition to testing and 

certification of products for 

demonstration of conformance to the 

test standards listed in Table 1 below. 

TABLE 1—LIST OF APPROPRIATE TEST

STANDARDS FOR INCLUSION IN UL’S

NRTL SCOPE OF RECOGNITION

Test standard Test standard title 

AAMI 

ES60601–1.

Medical electrical equipment—Part 1: General requirements for basic safety 

and essential performance. 

UL 1004–1 ... Rotating Electrical Machines. 

OSHA’s recognition of any NRTL for 

a particular test standard is limited to 

equipment or materials for which OSHA 

standards require third-party testing and 

certification before using them in the 

workplace. Consequently, if a test 

standard also covers any products for 

which OSHA does not require such 

testing and certification, an NRTL’s 

scope of recognition does not include 

these products. 

The American National Standards 

Institute (ANSI) may approve the test 

standards listed above as American 

National Standards. However, for 

convenience, we may use the 

designation of the standards-developing 

organization for the standard as opposed 

to the ANSI designation. Under the 

NRTL Program’s policy (see OSHA 

Instruction CPL 1–0.3, Appendix C, 

paragraph XIV), any NRTL recognized 

for a particular test standard may use 

either the proprietary version of the test 

standard or the ANSI version of that 

standard. Contact ANSI to determine 

whether a test standard is currently 

ANSI-approved. 

A. Conditions 

In addition to those conditions 

already required by 29 CFR 1910.7, UL 

must abide by the following conditions 

of the recognition: 

1. UL must inform OSHA as soon as 

possible, in writing, of any change of 

ownership, facilities, or key personnel, 

and of any major change in its 

operations as an NRTL, and provide 

details of the change(s); 

2. UL must meet all the terms of its 

recognition and comply with all OSHA 

policies pertaining to this recognition; 

and 

3. UL must continue to meet the 

requirements for recognition, including 

all previously published conditions on 

UL’s scope of recognition, in all areas 

for which it has recognition. 

Pursuant to the authority in 29 CFR 

1910.7, OSHA hereby expands the scope 

of recognition of UL, subject to the 

limitation and conditions specified 

above.

notice of its intent to grant an exclusive, 

license in the United States to practice 

the invention described and claimed in 

U.S. Patent Application No. 14/150,502;
