The most direct way to determine UL certified cables is to check the UL certification mark and printing information on the surface of the product. Here are the specific steps:
1, Identify UL certification mark
UL Mark: The cable surface should be clearly printed with the word "UL", which is the certification mark of Underwriter Laboratories Inc. in the United States.
Listing symbol: Some cables will also be printed with the "LISTED" symbol, indicating that the product has passed UL testing and meets safety standards.
2, View cable printing information
The printing on the surface of the cable usually includes the following key information:
AWM: indicates that the cable complies with UL758 standard and is suitable for internal wiring of electrical appliances.
Product code: such as "2569", specific specifications can be found on the UL official website.
Certification file number: used to trace the manufacturer.
Rated temperature and voltage: For example, "105 ℃" and "600V" indicate the temperature resistance level and rated voltage of the cable.
Flame retardant rating: such as "VW-1", indicating the flame retardant performance of the cable.
3, Verify the authenticity of authentication
Search UL official website: Use the certification file number on the cable to check the certification status on the UL official website.
Check packaging and certificate of conformity: The packaging and certificate of conformity of regular UL certified cables should have clear UL markings, model specifications, rated voltage, and other information printed on them.
