What is a UL Listed Panel?

A UL Listed Panel is an electrical control panel that has been designed, built, and certified to meet Underwriters Laboratories (UL) safety standards. This certification verifies that the panel’s components, wiring methods, grounding, spacing, and overall construction comply with nationally recognized safety requirements. UL Listed panels are commonly used in industrial and commercial applications and are often required by the National Electric Code, insurance companies, and end users. Using a UL Listed panel helps ensure safe operation, reliable performance, easier approvals, and reduced risk for both personnel and equipment.

  • Code-compliant and safety focused – Built to meet UL standards, ensuring proper wiring, grounding, and component protection.
  • Inspection and Approvals – Both panel shops are audited quarterly by UL inspectors.
  • High reliability and long service life – Designed for consistent performance in demanding commercial and industrial environments.

What is a ETL Listed Panel?

An ETL Listed Panel is an electrical control panel that has been tested and certified by Intertek (ETL) to meet nationally recognized safety standards, such as UL standards. This certification confirms that the panel’s components, wiring, grounding, spacing, and overall construction comply with required electrical safety codes. ETL Listed panels are widely accepted by the National Electric Code, authorities having jurisdiction (AHJs), and insurance providers and are commonly used in industrial and commercial applications. An ETL Listed panel provides the same level of safety and code compliance as UL, offering a reliable and approved solution for modern automation and control systems.

  • Nationally recognized safety certification – Tested and certified by Intertek (ETL) to applicable NEC standards.
  • Inspector and AHJ accepted – Approved by authorities having jurisdiction, insurance providers, and end users.
  • Reliable and durable construction – Built for demanding commercial and industrial environments.

Why Listed?

  • UL and ETL are both OSHA approved NRTL (Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory)
  • Lower long-term cost – Fewer failures, easier troubleshooting, and reduced maintenance over the life of the panel.
  • Scalable and expandable – Panels can be modified or expanded in the future while maintaining compliance.
  • Risk reduction – Minimizes electrical hazards, equipment damage, and liability exposure.
  • UL Solutions provides safety testing and certification for equipment used in hazardous (HazLoc) locations, defined as areas with fire or explosion risks from flammable gases, vapors, liquids, or combustible dust.
