cUL Certification

When UL tests a product to CSA standards and it passes, the product receives the cUL mark.
This mark is also fully accepted in Canada, since it demonstrates compliance with Canadian safety standards.

Legal authority: Both CSA and cUL are equally valid in Canada. Products with either certification can legally be sold and used.

📌 In short:

CSA and cUL carry the same legal weight in Canada.
