Meeting UL 48 Marking Standards

Your Guide to Compliant Electrical Signage Labels

 

UL 48 Electrical Signage

As a leading provider of industrial labels, we understand the critical importance of meeting UL 48 standards for Electrical Signage. This blog post will guide you through the key requirements and how our labeling solutions can help ensure your signage is fully compliant.

Permanent and Legible Markings

UL 48 Section 7.1.2 mandates that all markings must be permanent and legible. Our industrial label printing services offer several material options that meet these criteria of being indelibly-printed, pressure-sensitive labels:

  1. MP-202-CCP - Metalized silver polyester with clear computer printable overlaminate and permanent
    acrylic adhesive
  2. PP-301-CCP - White polyester with clear computer printable overlaminate and permanent acrylic adhesive.
  3. LS-602-DSS - Polycarbonate overlay with extra aggressive permanent acrylic adhesive
  4. MF-804-SAT - Satin Silver Photo Sensitive Aluminum with extra aggressive permanent acrylic adhesive

Essential Information on Your Labels

To fully comply with UL 48, your electrical signage labels should include:

  1. Manufacturing Date: We can incorporate a clear manufacture date on each label, helping you track product age and compliance.
  2. Assembly Location: Our customizable label designs allow for easy inclusion of the specific factory where each sign was assembled.
  3. Location Ratings: We offer clear markings for dry, damp, or wet location ratings, ensuring proper installation and use.
  4. Frequency Ratings: Our labels can prominently display any required frequency ratings for your electrical signage.
