Underwriters Laboratories (UL)
A private organization which tests and lists electrical (and other) equipment for electrical and fire safety according to recognized UL and other standards. A UL listing is not an indication of overall performance. End use products such as lighting fixtures, fully encased ballasts, and home appliances are examples of UL Listed products and bear the UL logo. Components such as HID open core & coil ballasts, electrical insulating materials are UL Component Recognized products and bear the UL Component Recognition logo. Lamps are not UL listed except for compact fluorescent lamp assemblies - those with screw bases and built-in ballasts.
