Title	Electrical Insulating Sleeving Has Not Been Submitted for Ul Flammability Compliance
Event Description	The licensee provided the following information via facsimile: Since 1999, our customer, Transco Products Inc., Chicago IL, has purchased items of electrical insulating sleeving (natural Varglas Silicone Resin 500 Sleeving Class H-A-1) in various sizes from us with the requirements that they be UL recognized for 200 degrees C, 600 volt service and that they comply with ULs VW-1 flammability requirements to be accomplished by a Certificate of Conformance attesting to those points. Although this sleeving's UL recognition for 200 degrees C, 600 volt service is covered under UL File E63450, and is not recognized for complying with the type VW-1 flammability classification under File E63450, the material was certified to Transco's purchase orders. Transco's customer is Exelon Corporation, Chicago, IL. However, although the above product has not been submitted to, nor has it been recognized by, UL for compliance to its VW-1 flammability requirements, Varflex tests, done in complete accordance with ULs VW-1 Test procedures, indicate the product does qualify for UL recognition and, therefore, does not create a substantial safety hazard. UL recognition will be pursued.
