11、t therequirements of 29.3.5.1 are met.RATIONALE FOR DECISION:Wiring ferrules are commonly used to facilitate connection of internal wiring in industrial control panels.The use of ferrules is currently not addressed by UL 508A. Ferrules are limited to factory installation sincespecialized tools and c

12、ontrol of their use must be applied to the installation. Any manufacturers ferrulesare suitable for use in factory wiring only, power or control circuits. As ferrules are an extension of aconductor, no short circuit current rating is required or assigned.Copyright 2016 UL LLCUL LLC, in performing it
