UL cable refers to a comprehensive category of cable products that have obtained safety certification from Underwriters Laboratories, signifying compliance with rigorous safety standards and performance requirements. This certification involves not only testing the product itself but also includes ongoing surveillance of the manufacturing process and quality control system, ensuring consistent safety quality across production batches. Cables that achieve UL certification are marked with a clear UL logo and their unique file number on the outer jacket, which serves as both a guarantee of product safety and an essential passport for entering the North American market and many other important global markets.
This category encompasses a wide range of products from low-voltage electronic wires to medium- and high-voltage power cables, with specific certification standards varying according to application. Common UL standards include UL758 (Appliance Wiring Material), UL62 (Flexible Cords and Cables), and UL1581 (Reference Standard for Electrical Wires, Cables, and Flexible Cords), each providing detailed specifications for aspects such as insulation materials, conductor specifications, flame retardancy ratings, and voltage withstand performance. Whether for household appliance power cords, internal wiring of electronic devices, or industrial control cables,
UL Cables provide safety assurance for various electrical connections through their reliable safety performance and consistent product quality, giving both manufacturers and consumers confidence in their use.
