What is a UL ratio?

If you mean UL Rated, that is an abbreviation for an electrical product being approved by the Underwriters Laboratories as safe to use or have. If you buy a space heater, for instance, that is not UL Rated and does not bear the stamp that it is UL Rated, I wouldn't recommend using it.


Why is an electrical appliance safe to use?

All appliances have to pass an inspection to insure the safety of that device. These inspection rules are generated by an independent safety authority. In Canada it is CSA, Canadian Standards Association and in the US it is UL, Underwriters Laboratories.Electricians working under the electrical code can not connect any piece of equipment to the utility's electrical supply without the device having a CSA or UL label on it.This is becoming a problem with China exporting equipment to North America. Many electrical appliances from China would not pass inspection of the CSA or UL requirements. As of late the CSA and UL labels are being forged and are applied to the exported appliances from China.So the old adage of "buyer be aware" comes into full effect. Before buying appliances do your research and find out from which country the equipment comes from.
