OK, so I think I should know this, but I don't.
Where, if anywhere in the NEC does it require that anything be UL approved? I know I can have a gutter made by the local fabricator with no problem and that's not UL approved. The issue has come up because a few customers have ordered light fixtures online and inspectors won't allow them because they are not UL approved.
Is there some distinction between a fixture that is purchased and an item that is fabricated?
On an upcoming job we are having two junction boxes custom made due to tight spacing and box fill. Will they need to be UL approved?
Code reference anyone?
Thanks.
