This revision of ANSI/UL 62841-2-8 dated May 27, 2022 is being issued to update the title page to reflect the most recent designation as a Reaffirmed American National Standard (ANS). No technical changes have been made.

This standard is an adoption of IEC 62841-2-8, Edition 1, published by the IEC April 2016. There are no technical national differences for this standard.

As noted in the Commitment for Amendments statement located on the back side of the title page, UL and CSA are committed to updating this harmonized standard jointly. However, the revision pages dated May 27, 2022 will not be issued by CSA as these revision pages only address UL ANSI approval dates.
