The Underwriters Laboratory’s (UL) 130 standard identifies three pad failure modes i.e. fire, electric shock, and skin burns. The historic strength of Underwriters Laboratory in the first two areas i.e. fire and shock is manifest throughout UL 130 where interventions are fully developed in the form of specifications, suggestions, requirements, and test protocols. Indeed, accident statistics reflect the efficacy of the standard; less than eight death cases a year are caused by fires associated with electric heating pads. The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has estimated that most of the yearly 1600 electric heating pad accidents treated in hospital emergency rooms are caused by thermal burns not caused by fire.
Key Target Audience
Heating Pad Manufacturers, Heating Pad Distributors and Traders, Healthcare Industry Associations, Hospitals and Clinics, Government Regulatory Bodies and Others
