[Docket No. OSHA-2013-0012]
Modification to the List of Appropriate NRTL Program Test
Standards and the Scope of Recognition of Several NRTLs
AGENCY: Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), Labor.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The NRTL Program recognizes organizations that provide product-
safety testing and certification services to manufacturers. These
organizations perform testing and certification for purposes of the
program, to U.S. consensus-based product-safety test standards. The
products covered by the NRTL Program consist of those items for which
OSHA safety standards require ``certification'' by a NRTL. The
requirements affect electrical products and 36 other types of products.
OSHA does not develop or issue these test standards, but generally
relies on standards development organizations (SDOs), which develop and
maintain the standards using a method that provides for input and
consideration of views of industry groups, experts, users, consumers,
governmental authorities, and others having broad experience in the
safety field involved.
A. Deletion and Replacement of Test Standards
The NRTL Program regulations require that appropriate test
standards be maintained and current (29 CFR 1910.7(c)). A test standard
withdrawn by an SDO is no longer considered an appropriate test
standard (CPL 01-00-004, NRTL Program Policies, Procedures and
Guidelines Directive (NRTL Program Directive), Ch. 2.IX.C.1). It is
OSHA's policy to remove recognition of withdrawn test standards by
issuing a correction notice in the Federal Register for all NRTLs
recognized for the withdrawn test standards (Id.). However, SDOs
frequently will designate a replacement standard for withdrawn
standards. OSHA will recognize a NRTL for an appropriate replacement
test standard if the NRTL has the requisite testing and evaluation
capability for the replacement test standard (NRTL Program Directive,
Ch. 2.IX.C.2).
One method that NRTLs may use to show such capability involves an
analysis to determine whether any testing and evaluation requirements
of existing test standards in a NRTL's scope are comparable (i.e., are
completely or substantially identical) to the requirements in the
replacement test standard (NRTL Program Directive, Ch. 2.IX.C.3). If
OSHA's analysis shows the replacement test standard does not require
additional or different technical capability than an existing test
standard(s), and the replacement test standard is comparable to the
existing test standard(s), then OSHA can add the replacement test
standard to affected NRTLs' scope of recognition. If OSHA's analysis
shows the replacement test standard requires an additional or different
technical capability, or the replacement test standard is not
comparable to any existing test standards, each affected NRTL seeking
to have OSHA add the replacement test standard to the NRTL's scope of
recognition must provide information to OSHA that demonstrates
technical capability (NRTL Program Directive, Ch. 2.IX.D).
B. Other Reasons for Removal of Test Standards From the NRTL List of
Appropriate Test Standards
OSHA may choose to remove a test standard from the NRTL list of
appropriate test standards based on an internal review in which NRTL
Program staff review the NRTL list of appropriate test standards to
determine if the test standards conform to the definition of an
appropriate test standard defined in NRTL Program regulations and
policy. There are several reasons for removing a test standard based on
this review. First, a document that provides the methodology for a
single test is a test method rather than an appropriate test standard
(29 CFR 1910.7(c)). A test standard must specify the safety
requirements for a specific type of product(s) (NRTL Program Directive,
Ch. 2.VIII.C.1). A test method, however, is a specified technical
procedure for performing a test. As such, a test method is not an
appropriate test standard. While a NRTL may use a test method to
determine if certain safety requirements are met, a test method is not
itself a safety requirement for a specific product category.
Second, a document that focuses primarily on usage, installation,
or maintenance requirements, and not
safety requirements (i.e., features, parts, capabilities, usage
limitations, or installation requirements that would create a potential
hazard in operating the equipment if not properly used), would also not
be considered an appropriate test standard (NRTL Program Directive, Ch.
2.VIII.C.1). In some cases, however, a document may also provide safety
test specifications in addition to usage, installation, and maintenance
requirements. In such cases, the document would be retained as an
appropriate test standard based on the safety test specifications.
Finally, a document may not be considered an appropriate test
standard if the document covers products for which OSHA does not
require testing and certification (NRTL Program Directive, Ch.
2.VIII.C.2). Similarly, a document that covers electrical product
components would not be considered an appropriate test standard. These
documents apply to types of components that have limitation(s) or
condition(s) on their use, which are not appropriate for use as end-use
products. These documents also specify that these types of components
are for use only as part of an end-use product. NRTLs, however,
evaluate such components only in the context of evaluating whether end-
use products requiring NRTL approval are safe for use in the workplace.
Accordingly, as a matter of policy, OSHA considers that documents
covering such components are not appropriate test standards under the
NRTL Program. OSHA notes, however, that it is not proposing to delete
from NRTLs' scope of recognition any test standards covering end-use
products that contain such components.
In addition, OSHA notes that, to conform to a test standard
covering an end-use product, a NRTL must still determine that the
components in the product comply with the components' specific test
standards. In making this determination, NRTLs may (within the confines
of the requirements of Annex B, Section 7.4 G and H of the NRTL Program
Policies, Procedures, and Guidelines, OSHA Instruction CPL 01-00-004
(Oct. 1, 2019) (the NRTL Program Directive, available at https://www.osha.gov/sites/default/files/enforcement/directives/CPL_01-00-004.pdf)) test the components themselves or accept the testing of a
qualified testing organization that a given component conforms to the
particular test standard. OSHA reviews each NRTL's procedures to
determine which approach the NRTL will use to address components and
reviews the end-use product testing to verify that the NRTL
appropriately addresses that product's components.
II. Summary of Proposed Actions
In a July 12, 2023 Federal Register notice (88 FR 44406, referred
to in this notice as ``Proposed Modification,'' and available at
www.regulations.gov under Docket ID OSHA-2013-0012-0030), OSHA proposed
to delete several test standards from the NRTL Program's list of
appropriate test standards; incorporate two replacement standards into
the NRTL Program's list of appropriate test standards; remove deleted
test standards from the scopes of recognition of several NRTLs; and add
to the scopes of recognition of some of these NRTLs replacement test
standards, as applicable. The notice requested public comment on the
proposal; however, no comments were received in response to the Federal
Register notice. As will be explained below, OSHA is issuing a final
decision on these matters as proposed, without modification.
III. Final Decision To Remove Test Standards From the NRTL Program's
List of Appropriate Test Standards
In this notice, OSHA announces the final decision to delete several
withdrawn test standards from the NRTL Program's List of Appropriate
Test Standards. OSHA also announces the final decision to incorporate
into the NRTL Program's List of Appropriate Test Standards two
replacement test standards. These final actions are detailed below in
Table 1.

OSHA will place on its informational web pages the modifications to
each NRTL's scope of recognition. These web pages detail the scope of
recognition for each NRTL, including the test standards the NRTL may
use to test and certify products under OSHA's NRTL Program. OSHA also
will add to the list of ``Appropriate Test Standards'' web page those
test standards added to the NRTL Program's List of Appropriate Test
Standards. The agency will add to the ``Standards No Longer
Recognized'' web page those test standards that OSHA no longer
recognizes or permits under the NRTL Program. Access to these web pages
