(a) Unless exempted by the department under (d) of this section, a person may not sell, offer to sell, or otherwise transfer in the course of the person's business a consumer electrical product that is manufactured after August 14, 1990, unless the product is clearly marked as being listed by an approved third-party certification program.
(b) A person may not sell, offer to sell, or otherwise transfer in the course of the person's business a consumer electrical product that is manufactured before August 14, 1990, unless the product is clearly marked

(2) with a warning label that complies with (e) of this section.
(c) A person may not sell, offer to sell, or otherwise transfer in the course of the person's business a consumer electrical product that has been exempted under (d) of this section, unless the product is clearly marked with a warning label that complies with (e) of this section.
(d) If a consumer electrical product is a work of art or an item that has an unusual application that makes approval by a third-party certification program not reasonably available, the department shall upon request exempt the item from (a) of this section. The department shall establish by regulation guidelines to identify consumer electrical products that qualify for an exemption under this section.
(e) The warning label required by this section must be a brightly colored label that contains in simple, direct language a warning that the electrical product is not listed by an approved third-party certification program. The department shall adopt regulations establishing the exact content, color, design, and use of the warning label.
(f) Unless a later version has been adopted by the department by regulation, a certification program must meet the requirements of ANSI Z-34.1 - 1987, American National Standards for Certification - Third-Party Certification Program, published by the American National Standards Institute, in order to qualify as an approved third-party certification program under this section. The department may adopt by regulation later versions of the American National Standards for Certification - Third-Party Certification Program, as the standard for third-party certification programs under this section. If the department has adopted a later version, a certification program must meet the requirements of the most recent version adopted by the department in order to qualify as an approved third-party certification program under this section.
