I may be wrong but I heard a story once about equipment that an inspector did not like certain conditions yet it was UL listed. The condition was a face up panelboard in a piece of equipment. This inspector felt this was a fairly dangerous condition to have live bus facing up like that. All you need is to drop a screwdriver or other tool while working on it and you have fireworks. It would not have been that hard to mount it in a vertical position.
The guy decided to find out more about why this piece gets a listing with that condition. What he had found out about at the time was that the particular condition was never requested to be evaluated by UL. they only evaluate what they are asked to evaluate. He thought this was pretty stupid when the problem he saw looked fairly obvious as a safety hazard.
A UL listing does not mean a product is safe. It just means it has been evaluated for certain criteria, along with an intended purpose of use. Use it for something other than the intended use and the listing means nothing. Bring a condition that was not part of the testing and the listing means nothing.
