November, 2019 UL 508A certification for the North American markets

UL certification confirms to the manufacturer that the production complies with the high safety regulations and applicable standards of the American and Canadian markets. This certificate is a true quality mark.

SCHUKO has had itself certified according to the UL 508A*) standard for the production of industrial control cabinets. As a subsidiary, LS Automation GmbH & Co. KG is allowed to equip these controls and switch cabinets with the UL certificate and mark them with an inspection sticker (UL label*). During import control to North America, the systems can be accepted more quickly and easily by the local acceptance authorities.

Additional advantage - we are also allowed to develop and produce control cabinets according to UL 508A for customers.

*) Underwriters Laboratories (UL) is one of the most important independent institutions worldwide for the testing and certification of materials, components and end products in the field of product safety with a focus on the possible occurrence of fire. UL has developed more than 1,300 safety standards for this purpose. No other Mark has a comparable status.
