What does it mean to be a UL Listed panel shop? 

We are proud to announce that TC Control Group is an official UL listed 508A industrial control panel builder! Becoming UL listed is a crucial achievement within the controls industry, and requires rigorous training and testing. We strive to produce the highest quality control systems for our clients, and meeting the UL standards reinforces our dedication and capability to do so. 

Our Director of Field Operations, Warren Castonguay, is the UL Manufacturer Technical Representative (MTR) for TC Control Group. As part of the 508A MTR Program, Warren completed extensive training and passed the UL-administered test with a score above 80%.

As MTR, Warren maintains a comprehensive understanding of the 508A requirements and specifications for industrial control panels. His expertise is an essential part of our operation!

To be UL listed, panels must meet requirements such as the types of materials and components used in manufacturing, wire and conductor specifications, ventilation and temperature durability, and other safety and efficiency measures.

After each panel is built, they are inspected to ensure that they uphold the UL standards. All UL listed and approved TC Control Group panels and line voltage applications will include the UL label and a unique UL number.

Representatives from UL Solutions will visit TC Control Group’s panel shop every four months for spot inspections to ensure that their production and documentation requirements are being met.

UL Solutions’ goal for creating the 508A industrial controls panel certification (among with many other certifications!) is to create a safer world to live and work in. Their mission is to support the production of safe, environmentally friendly, and high-quality electrical products. TC Control Group is also committed to these goals, and we couldn't be happier to be certified by their program.
