NRTL Listing is mandatory for most types of equipment. See the definition of
'acceptable" below for those cases where NRTL Listing is not mandatory. This
comes from 1910.399 Definitions Applicable to this Subpart.

Acceptable. An installation or equipment is acceptable to the Assistant
Secretary of Labor, and approved within the meaning of this Subpart S:
(i) If it is accepted, or certified, or listed, or labeled, or otherwise
determined to be safe by a nationally recognized testing laboratory; or
(ii) With respect to an installation or equipment of a kind which no
nationally recognized testing laboratory accepts, certifies, lists, labels,
or determines to be safe, if it is inspected or tested by another Federal
agency, or by a State, municipal, or other local authority responsible for
enforcing occupational safety provisions of the National Electrical Code,
and found in compliance with the provisions of the National Electrical Code
as applied in this subpart; or
(iii) With respect to custom-made equipment or related installations which
are designed, fabricated for, and intended for use by a particular customer,
if it is determined to be safe for its intended use by its manufacturer on
the basis of test data which the employer keeps and makes available for
inspection to the Assistant Secretary and his authorized representatives.
Refer to 1910.7 for definition of nationally recognized testing laboratory.

Actually, if you read the regulation carefully, NRTL Listing is not
mandatory. There are other options of demonstrating compliance.

        29 CFR 1910 is the section that requires products be listed by an
NRTL.
