Impact Statement:
- All certifications to UL 508, which remain unchanged by revised constructions, may remain Listed or Recognized to UL 508. Substantial revisions will be reevaluated to UL61010-1 and UL61010-2-201 standards. Substantial revisions are defined as changes to the design, ratings, or the use of alternate components requiring a certification decision.
- After July 25, 2016, all new investigations of Programmable Controllers will need to comply with UL 61010-1 and UL 61010-2-201 for the UL mark.
Fees: A quote will be issued, per the manufacturer’s request or due to a change in design after the implementation date, for the Applicant to work with their local Intertek Lab to determine the necessary test program, sampling requirement and needed construction details and/or updated marking/instruction details.
