I recently had a situation where we had transferred some completed product to a warehouse to free up floor production space while an ETL investigation was still underway, but before we had obtained the ETL approval. ETL would not allow us to simply go to the warehouse and affix the markings even though the units were identical to the ones still on the production line, and 100% had undergone the required hipot and ground testing.
We were required to transport the units back to the factory for the sole purpose of marking them. So, add ETL to the list with UL. James W.
