What about product categories that list several standards?
Many of the existing standards are being phased out in favor of UL 60065, the Standard for Audio, Video and Similar Electronic Apparatus (Seventh Edition). UL 60065 is an IEC based standard which makes it desirable for the world market. In fact, UL 60065 contains the United States National Differences to IEC 60065:2001. Since UL is a member of the IECEE CB Scheme, we can offer global reach with a single product investigation.
