Underwriters Laboratories set the standards for provider education to ensure and enforce safety and quality assurance. They are the largest and leading organization that tests, certifies, and then inspects and audits to validate control panels as a third party. While UL has thousands of standards and certifications across industries, one certification that we find very important in our industry: UL508A Standards.

The UL 508A compliance is important because it sets UL508A Standards and guidelines for panel builders from the time of construction. These UL508A Standards include safe implementation of wiring. By using the UL508A Standards and guidelines for control panels, it ensures proper design methods are used and testing is done to meet industry requirements which can save customers cost, time, and keep them safe in the long haul. If you have existing panels that are not yet UL508A approved, they can be certified through UL if they meet the standards. This certification will echo that your control panels comply with electrical codes on the local and national level and is well worth the investment. UL 508A compliance also has auditing practices to verify compliance and safety standards are kept as the control panel operates long term. These types of proactive protocols can help keep everything in good standing and prevent safety issues from arising down the road.
