This Standard contains basic requirements for products covered by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL) under its Follow-Up Service for
35、 this category within the limitations given below and in the Scope section of this Standard. These requirements are based upon sound engineering principles, research, records of tests and field experience, and an appreciation of the problems of manufacture, installation, and use derived from consult
36、ation with and information obtained from manufacturers, users, inspection authorities, and others having specialized experience. They are subject to revision as further experience and investigation may show is necessary or desirable. B. The observance of the requirements of this Standard by a manufa
37、cturer is one of the conditions of the continued coverage of the manufacturers product. C. A product which complies with the text of this Standard will not necessarily be judged to comply with the Standard if, when examined and tested, it is found to have other features which impair the level of saf
38、ety contemplated by these requirements. D. A product employing materials or having forms of construction which conflict with specific requirements of the Standard cannot be judged to comply with the Standard. A product employing materials or having forms of construction not addressed by this Standar
39、d may be examined and tested according to the intent of the requirements and, if found to meet the intent of this Standard, may be judged to comply with the Standard. E. UL, in performing its functions in accordance with its objectives, does not assume or undertake to discharge any responsibility of
40、 the manufacturer or any other party. The opinions and findings of UL represent its professional judgment given with due consideration to the necessary limitations of practical operation and state of the art at the time the Standard is processed. UL shall not be responsible to anyone for the use of
41、or reliance upon this Standard by anyone. UL shall not incur any obligation or liability for damages, including consequential damages, arising out of or in connection with the use, interpretation of, or reliance upon this Standard. F. Many tests required by the Standards of UL are inherently hazardo
42、us and adequate safeguards for personnel and property shall be employed in conducting such tests.

43、ormance of various materials, equipment, and structures thereon including hull performance as it relates to static stability and maneuvering speed. 1.2 These requirements cover boats that are subject to United States Coast Guard (USCG) regulations as specified in 33 CFR 181 - Manufacturer Requiremen
44、ts and 33 CFR 183 - Boats and Associated Equipment, as weil as boats not specifically subject to USCG regulations. Boats that comply with these requirements are in accordance with the applicable USCG regulations. 1.3 These requirements supplement, and are used in conjunction with, the Standard for P
45、leasure and Commercial Motor Craft, NFPA 302-1998; the Standard for Recreational Boats Less Than 20 Feet in Length, UL 11 99. 1.4 A product that contains features, characteristics, components, materials, or systems new or different from those covered by the requirements in this standard, and that in
46、volves a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons shall be evaluated using the appropriate additional component and end-product requirements as determined necessary to maintain the acceptable level of safety as originally anticipated by the intent of this standard. A product whose features
47、, characteristics, components, materials, or systems conflict with specific requirements or provisions of this standard cannot be judged to comply with this standard. Where considered appropriate, revision of requirements shall be proposed and adopted in conformance with the methods employed for dev
48、elopment, revision, and implementation of this standard. 2 Components 2.1 Except as indicated in 2.2, a component of a boat covered by this standard shall comply with the requirements for that component. See Appendix A for a list of standards covering components generally used in the boats covered b
49、y this standard. 2.2 A component need not comply with a specific requirement that: a) Involves a feature or characteristic not needed in the application of the component in the product covered by this standard, or b) Is superseded by a requirement in this standard. 2.3 A component shall be used in accordance with its recognized rating established for the intended conditions of use. 2.4 Specific components are recognized as being incomplete in construction features or restricted in performance capabilities. Such components are inte
