UL Certification:

UL Certification Inside Track Cabling is fully certified to use the Underwriters Laboratories approved logo on our products. Underwriters Laboratories (UL) is an independent product safety testing and certification organization. The UL Mark on a product means that it has been tested by UL and determined to meet UL’s requirements and compliance with U.S. (UL) safety standards. As a manufacturer of UL certified products ITC must demonstrate compliance with the appropriate safety requirements, many of which are developed by UL. ITC must also employ and maintain a program to ensure that each copy of the product complies with the appropriate requirements. UL conducts periodic, unannounced follow-up inspections at our facility to verify and ensure ongoing compliance. If a product design is to be modified, a representative example must be retested before a UL Mark can be attached to the new product or its packaging. http://ul.com/

IPC/WHMA-A-620:

IPC/WHMA-A-620Inside Track Cabling manufactures all of its products to the current IPC/WHMA-A-620B standard. Since its debut in 2002, the IPC-WHMA-A-620 standard for the acceptance of cable and wire harness assemblies enjoyed almost immediate international acceptance, and it quickly became the most important process, materials and inspection document in our industry. The standard was jointly developed by the Wiring Harness Manufacturers Association(WHMA) and the IPC-Association Connecting Electronics Industries. Revision A of the standard, published in July 2006, contained a number of refinements related to harness testing. In preparing the current Revision B of the A-620 standard published October 1, 2012, the WHMA and the IPC reviewed and resolved more than 400 user comments on revision A. “No chapter has been untouched, from minor wording changes to major overhaul,” states Lyle Fanning, WHMA chairman and former president. “The new revision also contains more than 100 new or updated pictures and illustrations.” The A-620 standard is being followed by harness assemblers in 42 countries and has been translated into seven languages: English, Chinese, German, Danish, French, Polish and Spanish, http://www.ipc.org

RoHS and WEEE:

RoHS and WEEERoHS has become an industry standard. Inside Track Cabling continuously updates its RoHS policies and procedures to ensure complete and accurate fulfillment of each individual customer’s requirement(s). RoHS, also known as Lead-Free, stands for Restriction of Hazardous Substances. RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC restricts the use of six hazardous materials found in electrical and electronic products. All applicable products in the EU market after July 1, 2006 must pass RoHS compliance. RoHS impacts the entire electronics industry. The substances banned under RoHS are lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), hexavalent chromium (CrVI), polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE). The restricted materials are hazardous to the environment and pollute landfills. They are dangerous in terms of occupational exposure during manufacturing and recycling. Any business that sells applicable electronic products, sub-assemblies or components directly to EU countries, or sells to resellers, distributors or integrators that in turn sell products to EU countries, is impacted if they utilize any of the restricted materials.
