Quality

Quality of finished products is a real concern for most manufacturers when outsourcing cable assemblies. Some of the issues that have become more common place include the use of substitute or counterfeit materials. These materials may be of inferior quality and may not be suitable for the application. UL has a division that focuses on counterfeit product working with law enforcement to remove products that have counterfeit UL marks from distribution. They help develop solutions to identify the manufacturers and distributers to stop the flow of illegal product.

Audits

Technical Cable Applications is randomly audited every three months by UL to assure that assemblies that are labeled are built according to specification with the designated components. Inventory may be assessed to assure that the materials used meet the requirements including the proper certification marks. The process also involves an evaluation to assure that records are kept properly, and that only authorized UL Labels are being used.
