What is the difference between a product having a UL Mark and that of ETL/Semko. Is there a preference?

Re: UL versus ETL
I believe the preference is UL, however, it is up to the AHJ to determine if the material or equipment used meets a specific listing of their choice. See LISTED in Article 100 of the NEC.

Re: UL versus ETL
One way to desginate a testing lab would be would be NRTL-Nationally Recognized Laboratory. An NTRL such as ETL or CSA can test products to a UL standard. UL is the best known, they have the best technical information (White Book), but they are not the only testing lab. In washington state our electrical agency has a list of NRTL's stating who can test what.
