Underwriters Laboratories (UL), global product safety testing and certification body, announces new services of certification and testing of wind turbines and their components to ensure electrical safety and fire protection.
These services, offered by UL in association with Germanischer Lloyd (GL), provide to the manufacturers of wind turbines around the world, and in particular to the Spain, a compliance solution according to the requirements of the CIS and the USA. With these services UL customers access rapidly to the global market. Germanischer Lloyd (GL) is a pioneer in wind energy equipment certification.
Assessment and assistance from UL will cover the wind turbine as a whole, including the components and assemblies and qualify products so that they can carry the UL Classified brand. The work done by UL, as wind turbines, will take place at the premises of Northbrook (United States), but will also offer services of assessment in each country.
