Hello folks. I have a panel project that, as I understand it, will require UL labeling, and the more I look into UL standards, the more I think that I am in over my head (not with the panel itself, but with the UL label).
The project is a Z-purged NEMA 4X stainless panel with a PanelView Plus 7 Performance HMI mounted in the door. The panel will be mounted on the equipment, which will be installed in a Class 1 Div 2 location...in California.
From what I have read, California has very strict regulations governing electrical installations, one of which is approval by a NRTL. I started looking into UL approval and found that if all my ducks are in a row, I can have a UL certified panel shop inspect the panel and apply their label to it. My problem is finding a panel shop with the correct certification. I have been unable to even find which UL standard applies in this situation. UL698A seems to govern only panels installed in a safe location that have intrinsically safe circuits extending into a hazardous location. In the case of my current project, the panel will be installed within the hazardous location.
At this point, I just need to know what UL standard(s) governs this project. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
