Legally, every single electrical product in the USA and Canada must be approved by an independent certification body. This approval can be achieved by: 

  • Product certification
  • On-site inspection of the product (where permitted by the local authority)
  • On-site product certification (where on-site inspection is not possible, e.g. for equipment in explosive atmospheres)
