Good answer, but I'll just add a little note. Look at your follow up services report it possible that the power supply is identified in their by the file number as well. The inspector just matches the call-out in the report to the component in front of them. If the inspector can find the same marking - regardless of whether it is a name or file number etc - then its essentially time to move to the next component. I would follow up with Mike's advice and have a printout of that section of the directory and know what page and volume its found out. During the inspection just guide the inspector to that section of the book where they can confirm it for themselves. I do the same thing for printed circuit cards because they usually have a logo rather than a name or file number. Saves us a lot of time during inspections and some potential grief with the inspector. I do it for my self audits anyway and store all of it in a product folder near my follow up files. I bring the whole mess along for the product inspection. Gary

There is no "Listed" or "XXXX" (control number) or category (such as ITE). For many categories, including power supplies, UL allows the file number to be used instead of the company name, so it sounds like your situation is ok. Proof is when the UL inspector tries to match it up with their RC Directory - could take some time to search the book. I suggest you surf ul.com & search the certifications database for the file number (check that the model is there) so you can direct the UL inspector to the right place in the book.
