UL Listed Rogowski Coils

UL Listed Versus UL Recognized Rogowski Coils

As one of the world’s most respected designers and manufacturers of AC current sensors, Magnelab (www.magnelab.com) is pleased to lead the way with production of our first line of Rogowski coils to receive UL listed classification.

As a matter of fact, Magnelab’s upgraded line of Rogowski coils is certified as UL listed, starting immediately. In addition, with UL listing, a higher standard than UL recognition, each product was tested by UL to nationally accepted safety standards and found free from a reasonably foreseeable risk of fire, electric shock and related hazards.

Why Buy UL Listed Rogowski Coils?

First, the National Electrical Code (NEC) requires the use of UL listed products when available. Also, most other electrical codes require UL listed products. In like manner, it is an easy way to separate the safest, highest quality products from one other.

Be at the Forefront

Not only do we recommend asking your meter company if they provide UL listed Rogowski coils, but you may also contact Magnelab today at 303-772-9100 or at info@magnelab.com, for additional information and to help lead the way in using UL Listed Rogowski coils (Rope CT’s).
