Hi, All guys:0 m& U2 `' F6 j/ w9 l1 p: `4 x7 n1 l

Currently, UL is a worldwide certification body and has big,well fame, especially in the electrical appliances, but during the FUS inspection, VN is a very boring thing to all factory representatives, so pls kindly share your experience about the UL FUS audit and show some experience to avoid the VNs. First from my side. I give some examples of VN.: |, o6 N1 k# k* K- \
5 o5 A7 r' i8 m* j ]
1. There is an agreement between UL and the manufacturers that the IPI(initial product inspection) must be done before the first shipment , so pls remember it, if your factory has new UL file, contact the local UL Inspection center to do the IPI before you ship out your products with the UL marks.7 ]* V9 b0 I" r6 g& e4 a; H
( r& `& \% [- T6 r2. There is an agreement between UL and the manufacturers that all the regurlar inspections are unannounced beside some special cases, such as the IPI, IMP, Field report, so don't blame UL auditors that why you don't notice us before your coming....that's rediculous. but of course, if the auditors contact you before the regular inspection or you have good relationship with the UL auditors, that will be another case.+ K' x- p) Y% R. ~

3.There is an agreement between UL and the manufacturers that the access of the UL auditors to the factory is allowable, so don't refuse the access of the UL auditor, or the VN will be issued, and lots of US dollars will be fined./ I/ ?! h2 e, u4 l8 o$ Q% o

4. There is an agreement between UL and the manufacturers that the waiting time can not be so long( IPI will be a little longer), so don't let the UL auditor wait so long at the rest room or the meeting room, or a VN will be issued.0 h; A. }6 y+ t$ w
6 f8 T7 _, G" F1 y3 |5.UL auditors are very like to find some VNs on the marking and labels, so pls read your FUS procedure carefully and word by word, and try to avoid this kind of VN.

6.Check your FUS procedure and your products at intervals, make sure that all the components and materials which your factory used can comply with the FUS procedures description, if not, try to solve this kind of problems as soon as possible.

11. If VN is finally issued,and it's a real VN, don't refuse to sign this VN, or a new VN item will be issued....

All VNs will be fined by UL, currently whether it's reasonable or not, so try to avoid some VNs, cause it can save money, and welcome to show you guys' experience to help others.... |
